Respect their decision. Use bridges if you still want to chat with them. You can tell them you prefer Matrix and maybe even convince them to try it out once you show you can use it to combine multiple chat apps into one using Beeper or whatever, but you won't convince them to switch over. Element will just be "that app we use if we want to talk to x" if you try.
I think Matrix is good enough these days, but it wasn't ages. The official iOS app is being rewritten (for good reason) and the Android app is being rewritten again.
