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

Matrix, the open protocol for secure decentralised communications

^{MTRNord (matrix.org)}

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, the open protocol for secure decentralised communications

^{Will Lewis (matrix.org)}

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

✨ 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.

Grateful to punctuate a great week sharing a lovely time at

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

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.

Matrix, the open protocol for secure decentralised communications

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-…

@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.
