again, as with telegram, the shit I give zero fucks about (the groups, rooms, channels, whathaveyous) are encroaching on the things I give a ton of fucks about - the private, 1-on-1 comms. what are the odds this will be the only thing they'll freemiumise in the long term?
anyone successfully managed to import chat history from one instance to another? heard it's possible, don't know of anyone actually doing it.
While your concern is valid, it is instance specific. They can turn their whole instance paid, make it pay per message. The point of federation and an open standard is exactly that the user doesn't have to give a f. matrix.org is not the only homeserver and user has the power to make their own homeserver as well.
