that's incorrect. On a properly configured server like conversations.im it will fall back to direct TLS on port 443 and has no problem bypassing even restrictive firewalls at airports or hotels.

Use what ever instant messaging solution you want though. I'm just offering a tool.

@frdl I've never used Nation-Scale Matrix Synapse myself. So probably the slow version 😉 But if you want WhatsApp functionality and more, then that's the tool of choice for me. Especially in combination with Jitsi.

@frdl I'm happy that Matrix works for you. From a developer POV the dominance of Element (the company) is a huge liability and I prefer a standardization organization where I can actively participate without paying millions of dollars in member fees.
