Steps to reproduce

  1. Open app on SSS
  2. view room list
  3. some rooms (specific rooms - e.g. #webrtc:matrix.org and #dendrite:matrix.org) quite consistently show the right avatar, but don't use m.room.name to display the name.

Theory: this is a backend bug where state confusion means the synapse isn't sending the m.room.name to the client at all.

Outcome

What did you expect?

Reliable room names

What happened instead?

the problem here is that rust sdk should present the canonical alias a room name if a room has no explicit room name (but does have a canonical alias set). and it doesn’t.

@ara4n ara4n changed the title SSS: rooms often show a list of members rather than their m.room.name. rooms don’t use m.room.canonical_alias and show a list of members rather than their m.room.name. Oct 3, 2024

I believe this has been fixed in the SDK.
