> now being used as a replacement for forums
In Matrix there is an awful "threaded discussions" feature now, where collapsed forks branch off from the main chat flow. Which you have to separately manage. Keep a chat a chat, and a forum a forum.
Why is this bad, threaded discussions have existed for all internet time
Why do you think the threaded discussion feature is awful? I find it useful to keep track of multiple running conversations with someone or have a topic discussion within say a #Help room.
I always wanted to get this feature in chat, as my conversation (with a single person) often consist of few separate, independant threads.
