Komai: a fine Matrix chat app you can get to love

This looks very ugly compared to other matrix clients

It's great that etke.cc chose to build on nheko (a very fast Matrix client) and put in many thoughtful upgrades. I really hope Komai start getting built for macOS.

While I could understand some AI assistance, I just cannot look at such README with clearly sloppy too detailed nonsense app icon and eyesore emoji vomit: https://github.com/etkecc/komai

Having the core of your app be written in languages you self-admittedly don't understand is a bold move. I've been a big fan of the ansible-matrix playbooks for a while now so I'm willing to see this play out, but it doesn't fill me with confidence.

AI slop app.

You can teach a person to write programs. You can't teach good taste.

Wow, so much negativity, when the app scores really high on things that are supposed to be important here: * Desktop first, no electron crap * Open source and free * Linux first * Subjective, but to me it looks clean If getting all that means using some AI vibe code, that's fine by me. Who isn't these days anyway? (Be honest!) Anyway I hope the project is successful, more choice and competition in Matrix clients is a good thing. Now if only they can fix video calls...

I really like the Matrix ecosystem, and this client seems like a cool addition, but how are posts like this with a load of AI generated prose getting on the front page? I can't say how frustrating it is to be midway through reading something and realise there's no human author.
