Nheko is one of the most user friendly but minimal and clean matrix clients I have ever used. I use it as my main matrix client day to day and have had very little issues

What is nheko?

Nheko is a Matrix desktop client developed with Qt and C++20. It's being developed to improve its features and functionality.

Nheko also allows custom stickers and emojis, replies with text and media, typing notifications, username auto-completion, message notifications, and message redaction.

Further, it offers read receipts, presence and status messages, basic communities support, a room switcher, and light, dark and system themes. It allows separate profiles creation via the command line. Nheko also provides a D-Bus API for third-party plugins integration, excluding Windows or macOS.
