✨ 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.
The wait is over, videos from The Matrix Conference 2024 are here!
Find recordings, photos, press, and our sponsor prospectus for 2025 in the latest blog post: matrix.org/blog/2024/10/29/mat…

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. ❤️ 👇

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.

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

So... #Signal and #Wire, which both have issues, but not #Matrix / #XMPP? And for video, 2 #YouTube front ends and a proprietary YouTube clone, but no direct mention of #Peertube? And for Translation, the proprietary #Deepl, but no mention of the local and #Privacy respecting #Firefox #translate
I appreciate the intent of this post, but the research is... outdated at best.
I have been shepherding a Matrix Spec Change that tries to choose easy-to-understand wording to explain Cryptographic concepts to non-technical users.
I think the first draft is ready! Comments and suggestions welcome.
Have you considered putting the Matrix Conference videos up on conf.tube (a specialized #Peertube instance for conference videos)?
I have just released v0.0.10 of iamb! 🎉 Since its last version, the client has gained:
- A command to mark rooms as DMs, set per-room notification levels, and to mark all rooms read
- Message slash commands
- Support for managing room aliases, room history, and bans
- Bug fixes for window resizes, <C-W>o, saving/restoring more layout info, and more!
See github.com/ulyssa/iamb/release… for binaries and a list of changes, and iamb.chat/ for docs and install instructions.

Draupnir is now being supported with a grant from NLnet NGI Zero. I've written up a post with some context, and to describe the goals for the project marewolf.me/posts/draupnir/24-…
If you do have feedback or questions you can reach out to me here or in our matrix room matrix.to/#/#draupnir:matrix.o… (which is preferred).
You're invited to talk on Matrix. If you don't already have a client this link will help you pick one, and join the conversation. If you already have one, this link will help you join the conversationmatrix.to

What will the Foundation do to protect projects at the heart of Matrix? How do we determine what those “core” projects are? And are there any projects that don’t belong at the Foundation?
We're beginning the process of defining a new governance framework for Foundation projects, in collaboration with the Governing Board and the rest of the ecosystem. matrix.org/blog/2024/08/heart-…

@dev@post.naskya.net kümmert sich derzeit vor allem um Bugfixes und Codecleaning.
Es gibt auch einen #Matrix Space
@matrix I know you worked on encryption and key exchange in the latest iterations, but you made it worse.
That is freaking not usable. A new contact added by ID in 1to1 chat, "Never send encrypted messages to unverified sessions.." not activated. Just a brand new contact.
Not working at all. Trying to get users to #Matrix like that won't work.
It's not only old-style looking, heavy and non-intuitive, it's just not working at all.

Aus Gründen musste ich den Matrix-Server wechseln. Hier lest ihr, wie es mir dabei ergangen ist.
Authenticated media rollout continues (v important for homeserver and client devs!), an MSC to demo extending user profiles, an explainer on message security in Matrix, The Matrix Conference announcements, and more happened last week in Matrix!

Yikes! Thanks for pointing that out. We've retracted the boost and boosted the original post you linked to.
We monitor the #Matrix hashtag to try to find news to reshare with the ecosystem, and will be wary of that particular outlet going forward.

Check out the update at app.cinny.in/
A Matrix client where you can enjoy the conversation using simple, elegant and secure interface protected by e2ee with the power of open source.app.cinny.in
After many years away from the stage, I am back! It looks like I’m accepted to give a talk at the Matrix Conference (2024.matrix.org/) to present ✨ native simplified sliding sync ✨: how it differs from the first version of sliding sync (an experimental project implemented inside a proxy), how we’ve implemented it inside the Matrix Rust SDK etc. Gonna be fun!
The Matrix Conference is coming to Berlin, Germany on September 19–22, 2024.2024.matrix.org
Wow, #Element (the flagship #Matrix client) dropped support for #Firefox ESR in release 1.11.70. Or rather, they never supported it in the first place, only supporting "last two versions". The change causes a corrupted session for ESR users, and can't be reverted to fix it.
(Note that all Debian Stable users, by default, run Firefox ESR. This is kind of a big deal. ESR is always up to date on security, and gets new features once per year.)
They're managing the issue somewhat badly: github.com/element-hq/element-…
The best we've gotten so far, from a dev caught in the middle:
« Element devs follow the policy set out by people that manage them, they get an input but they do not control the policy. »
Nothing from their employer, whoever that is.
Your use case It seems (given the discussion in #27682, unless the person in charge of support there) that Firefox ESR isn't supported. Given it has a large user base (enterprise, Debian stable and...GitHub
Good to hear about improving call reliability in calls. Honestly, this is my number one complaint and request for Matrix overall.
I have a family member with an account on my server, and a TURN/STUN server, and our calls have working video and audio both ways less than 50% of the time.
They keep begging me to use Facetime. 🤮
The Matrix Rust SDK now provides a room list that is sorted on the client-side instead of server-side, github.com/matrix-org/matrix-r….
It has landed in Element X iOS nightly and soon on Android.
I’m going to publish blog posts to explain all the technical details but it’s really pretty neat!
#matrix #RustLang #stream #future #asynchronous
The goal of this PR is to implement client-side sorting in RoomList. So far, we used to use the sort parameter of sliding sync to sort the rooms. It is set to by_recency and by_name (see Sliding Wi...GitHub
