nitrix's Issues

There should be ghosttext for the login text

When typing in the homeserver, its unclear how you want the format for the homeserver URL,
e.g. matrix. URL, just the URL. Other clients can auto extrapolate the sub-domain, e.g. appending matrix. to the start of the URL.
I would add a temp ghosttext that has an example, e.g. matrix.org, that'll erase when you actually enter the field

LoginError

When raising the login error the debug doesnt print the actual error message, it just prints the errortype, LoginError, with no extra details
