minimal and aesthetic, but honestly slow and buggy. only available for few platforms, desktop app is more buggy than the web version. does not support pinning messages. does not allow pasting images from clipboard, which is really inconvenient.

overall it seems to be still in development, but i love how it looks. really elegant

also no voice call features

clutter free and good interface

This is incredibly underrated. Cinny is quite fast, with a sleek UI, popular, and probably what most people are looking for when they go to Matrix for an alternative to Discord.

  • Input that matters: An interface which adapts to your actions without making you feel uncomfortable.
  • Calm visual: Everything is properly aligned and formatted to give you a calm feeling.

Lot more to come

We are constantly working on Cinny to make it a better place. A place for communication like never seen before.

Cinny is built on top of Matrix — An open network for secure, decentralized communication. We have also made the source code of Cinny open to everyone, so you can enhance, modify and inspect it.
