Signal is generally good, no question.
But in my opinion, the strong connection to a phone and number is not a good thing when it comes to #accessibility (for those who cannot afford a phone with a long-term contract):
Perhaps there are alternatives e.g. #XMPP or #Matrix...


@ikonoklast the thing about #Signal that it was at least reliable. Messages were delivered instantly (same as with Conversations). From what I've been hearing about Element is that it becomes notoriously unreliable when it’s working without an external push service. And then it obviously becomes hard to measure battery impact if the app is dead half the time.
But yes maybe. Signal vs Conversations was easy to pull off because I use both apps on a daily basis anyway. I don’t use #Matrix


Danke. Nutze parallel noch die "alte" #Element, wovon #SchildiChat nur ein Fork ist. Beide unterstützen Spaces. Dafür können beide Apps keine angepinnten Nachrichten. Totaler Clusterfuck, wenn nicht mal beide (!) offiziellen Mobile-Clients von #Matrix alle Standardfeatures unterstützen.

Und irgendwie rechne ich damit, dass SchildiChat auf mittelfristig eingestellt wird, sobald Element unter Android eingestellt wird...


#ElementX "Spaces werden noch nicht unterstützt."

Production ready, lol!

Did you know the
#Kamailio project has a public @matrix room (and space if you're into spaces)?

Come join the discussions and talk with others about #SIP, Kamailio, and troubleshooting...

This weekend I wrote a #maubot that converts Spotify links shared in #Matrix chat rooms automatically to your preferred streaming service using #idonthavespotify <github.com/sjdonado/idonthaves…> by @sjdonado@threads.net.


Oha, das ist provokativ: Dieser Blogartikel sagt:

- Nutzt kein #PGP / #GPG
- Nutzt kein #XMPP + OMEMO
- Nutzt kein #Matrix (im Sinne: verlasst euch nicht auf die Verschlüsselung)
- E-Mails verschlüsseln ist sinnlos

Ich kenne den Autor nicht und würde ihn nicht erwähnen, würde der Artikel nicht in ernstzunehmenden ITSec-Newslettern zitiert

Huge thanks to everyone on the @matrix Governing Board and to @shauna for helping us get organized and run an efficient and productive first meeting!

Further thanks and *congrats* to @gwmngilfen and @HarHarLinks on being elected as the first Chair and Vice Chair of our first Governing Board 👏🏻

More to come! Brief meeting recap in this week's edition of TWIM: matrix.org/blog/2024/11/15/thi…

#Matrix #TWIM


The first Governing Board meeting, sunset of the Sliding Sync Proxy, and a new TARDIS! ✨

This and much more happened This Week in Matrix: matrix.org/blog/2024/11/15/thi…

#Matrix #TWIM


Work on Sliding Sync – which provides a significantly faster and more scalable sync experience in Matrix clients – has moved to focus on native support, and away from the proxy.

The Sliding Sync Proxy on the Matrix.org homeserver will be decommissioned on November 21st.

More details for users as well as server and client developers in our latest blog post: matrix.org/blog/2024/11/14/mov…

#Matrix


#XMPP has continued to evolve and improve over the many years I've been using it. But despite the development effort going into it, there aren't as many people joining it as there should.

We can thank hype and neomania for that. These factors ensure that proprietary/centralized networks (the latter includes #Matrix) receive more funding and more code contributors. More funding results in better marketing and stronger network effect.

I’ve been on Fedi for a year now and have fallen in love with the platform, so here’s my introduction! I studied computer science with a focus on RTOS and FP/PL, but I’m about to start my final semester of law school. I’ll be practicing at a boutique firm that primarily handles IP cases once I’m barred. I foilboard and I play way too many rhythm games in and out of the arcade.

I contribute to open source projects where I can, and I write up my experience in my digital garden which I’ve been maintaining for over a year now. It’s also a good place to find usage tips for projects/tools that you might want to use.

My passion for tech also includes privacy, and I’m an advocate for minimizing your digital footprint. GenAI is a scam and its purveyors are causing real harm while they sell it as hard as they can.

With #matrix and oidc I was thinking about offering an official FluffyChat server. It would have some benefits, right? I could have more control over the UX and would be kore independent. On the other hand it would require a lot of work and eval a public legal identity with either an expensive impressum service or publishing my physical address. Also a lot of legal paperwork.

So I came up with a new idea. A new login UX flow where the user picks the homeserver from a trustworthy list

Love this. Very much agree with this thinking

🎉 Aufregende Neuigkeiten
Wir haben endlich #Tammy veröffentlicht - ein komplett neuer #Matrix Client: tammy.connect2x.de

Tammy wurde von Grund auf in #Kotlin Multiplatform entwickelt und ist ein neuer, innovativer Matrix Messenger, der für Desktop (Windows, Mac, Linux), Mobilgeräte (derzeit Android, bald auch iOS) und Web (in Beta) verfügbar ist. Tammy basiert auf unseren robusten SDKs und ist ebenfalls Open Source!

Mehr dazu auch in diesem Vortrag: youtube.com/watch?v=rc21V-DKSb…


Today I implemented advanced style settings for #fluffychat with much more colors and the ability to blur the wallpaper. Also fixed a bug which made a wallpaper always look too downscaled

Videos from #MatrixConf, usable implementations of Matrix 2.0, a new Matrix Client called Tammy and lots of changes in Fractal! This and more happened this week in #Matrix!

📣 New blog post

✨ Sliding Sync at the Matrix Conference — mnt.io/articles/sliding-sync-a…

I have presented Sliding Sync, a novel, fast and efficient synchronisation mechanism for the Matrix protocol, at the first Matrix Conference in Berlin. It's been many many months that I'm working on this project, and I'm joyful it's now available to everyone for a better Matrix user experience!

The article contains the recording + slides. I've highlighted other talks too.

#matrix #RustLang


The wait is over, videos from The Matrix Conference 2024 are here!

Is there a better, more accessible #Matrix client for Windows than Element? Some of these reported issues have existed for years and I'm getting a bit tired of dealing with them. Tried Thunderbird but it's very slow. Once again disappointed that the open alternative to platforms like Discord can't seem to prioritize accessibility enough so I'm not perpetually tempted to just write my own client, which I'd do if I had 48 hours in a day and the patience of a saint.


Werft mal einen Blick auf die Messenger-Matrix. Trotz aller Bemühungen kann es sein, dass nicht alle Informationen zu den Messengern aktuell sind. In diesem Fall bitte ich um Rückmeldung, damit ich die Matrix anpassen kann. ❤️ 👇

On a train headed towards #mrmcd24. 🚄 Considering to create a self-organized session about @matrix. 🤔 If you know me, would like to get to know me, or talk about open source instant messaging, organizing events, online moderation and community management, ... find me by my pile of #matrix stickers! 😉


Ich möchte es nicht immer wieder neu erklären... 😉 #Matrix #Chat #Messenger


C2S server for matrix.org accounts is blocked in Russia using deep packet inspection (DPI). That means people can no longer access their accounts without resorting to censorship circumvention technology.

The website and S2S federation server are still reachable from Russia.

Thank you all for making the first annual #MatrixConf such a wonderful experience! We're already looking forward to the next one, slated for France in late 2025.

Our small-but-mighty team is properly exhausted and looks forward to sharing more – including recordings, photos, and takeaways – after resting up.

I am brimming with pride, gratitude, and joy after the 1st annual Matrix Conference. So much to say!

Grateful to punctuate a great week sharing a lovely time at
Café Botanico, a delightful garden-to-table restaurant hidden in the heart of Neukölln, with some of my colleagues at the Matrix.org Foundation. Thanks for being amazing, team 💖

In der Anwendung von freier, offener und wirtschaftlich fair betriebener Software sehen die Lukis eine praktische Verbindung zur #Freiheit des Evangeliums und vieler Narrative biblischer Texte.

Das war auch an diesem @luki@kirche.social Wochenende im Theologischen Seminar Herborn wieder zu spüren.

Ganz praktisch ging es z.B. um #GNUTaler, /e/OS, digitales in Kirchengemeinden, #Grist, #Matrix und Bots, #DeltaChat, #ElementX und die Server-Admin bei @hostsharing@geno.social

Die Location war ünrigens einzigartig ;-)

That is AWESOME news, and a strong demonstration of decentralization by example.

Thankyou for the ceaseless work towards progress with #Matrix / #Element / #Synapse / #Peertube.
