@RokeJulianLockhart, transferred to #2515 (comment), because I was confused at element-hq/element-android#4764 (comment). |

I suggest that the mobile and desktop clients integrate with the OS contact stores, like https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1845008#c0 describes - so that I see consistent, true information (like photographic avatars and full names) across my communication services, rather than pseudonyms for names, and random pictograms for avatars.
https://github.com/element-hq/element-meta/discussions?discussions_q=contacts doesn't return any duplicates, although #341 (comment) certainly relates. However, that issue appears to suggest that the web client should integrate with services' APIs, for reasons like what #848 (comment) describes - an inability to locate acquaintances. I support this too.
