Not to rain on their parade, but as someone who used element X, gave up because of the bugs. Is currently using XMPP with conversation.im and dino.im. The later seems much more stable, offer OMEMO encryption that worked better. If you want more social media elements there is also movin.eu.
I for one am shocked and stunned that early Element X builds had bugs. Now that we've finally launched it for general availability, hopefully the situation is better :)
