+SchildiChat Web/Desktop is a fork of Element [Web](https://github.com/vector-im/element-web)/[Desktop](https://github.com/vector-im/element-desktop).
 
+The most important changes of SchildiChat Web/Desktop compared to Element Web/Desktop are:
 - A unifed chat list for both direct and group chats
 - Message bubbles
 - Bigger items in the room list
+- … and more!
 
-While SchildiChat-Desktop should be already usable as is, it's still better seen as a
-proof-of-concept rather than a finished product, as there are still a few UX bugs
-remaining, and no ways to configure Schildi's features.
-Furthermore, I don't know how much more work I'm going to put into this, but
-if anybody wants to help improving it, contributions are welcome!
