Surely though the purpose of @EUCouncil looking at #Matrix would be to remove reliance on US tech companies?

If so, isn't it a major roadblock that @element / ElementX don't have working calls without Google / Apple on mobile (Note: relevant to all non Android/iPhone, not just those with NTFY):

While there are other clients, the mature ones are based on Element, so what client would the EU use, or would they not use it for calls? Or mobile? Seems unlikely.
