I would really like to see Spaces added if possible. This app is quite good and would be excellent to recommend seriously as a Discord alternative, with the mainline Element client being substantially slower and clunkier. Spaces support would deliver that.
How do you use spaces? I tried it in Element and it was very confusing to me, so I removed them from my setup again.
Spaces are a way to group things together.
Unlike something like folders in Discord, spaces can contain rooms or other spaces. Spaces can also be shared across several users.
Spaces can be created by anyone and any rooms or spaces can be added to them, even if you don't have control over said rooms of spaces.
Admins of rooms can configure them to only allow members of specific spaces to join, turning them into an approximation of a "Discord Server".
