elememoment
Element desktop is such a shitshow, if I use the search (this ctrl+k feature) to fast it auto closes because I enter keystrokes to fast, wtf is going on there

@kloenk Ah, so it's not just me having that problem...
re: elememoment
@joepie91 was worried that it's a me/macos thing, but sounds like nope. Even if I let ctrl+k load for a second I then still have to be slow
re: elememoment
@kloenk NixOS (in Firefox) here so not just macOS either, not even just desktop
re: elememoment
@joepie91 can recommend fractal on nixos though. that just does not even have that feature to begin with (at least not in a usable way :p)
re: elememoment
@kloenk I'm working on my own client now, which will be done any day now 🙃
re: elememoment
@joepie91 oh, nice. so guess you don't have any sanity left at this point? /hj
Did work on schildi and nio a while ago, now doing kernel and embedded, much saner :p
re: elememoment
@kloenk I've mostly been working so far on some UI stuff and a sensible internal representation of the message cache, which as far as I can tell, 0 of the existing clients have (all either depending on server responses, or suffering from jank in the way they merge server responses).
It's turned out to be a surprisingly difficult problem to solve performantly, though I think I have a working implementation now.
re: elememoment
@joepie91 uh nice, tell if you have something usable
re: elememoment
@kloenk I'll definitely post about it here when that happens, for now there's just a small sneak preview of what I'm going for in terms of UI: https://social.pixie.town/@joepie91/113515698069931949
re: elememoment
@kloenk I wouldn't be surprised if a big part of the jank in existing clients is purely due to this problem, to be honest.
