I have just tested the spectral [matrix]-Client on Debian bullseye (still testing) and only thing I can do with it is logon (giving matrix server name, username and password, plus device name).

Which matrix server are you using?


The login API call returns a 200 result (which looks like success), but then nothing is happening in the application. I cannot create new chats, I cannot open any rooms and also my room list that I see in other clients does not appear in spectral.

Spectral is not good about showing login failures. This isn't something that affects regular users (since you only ever log in once), but it's annoying for first-time users. Make sure you're using the full login name - the format would be @user:server. For example, I use @dilinger:queued.net. Even if you're using the default server (matrix.org), you'll probably need to add it.


It seems that this application is not really suitable for Debian 11 inclusion, is it? What am I missing?

It's rough around the edges, but has been perfectly usable for me.
