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
While @suraj_sloth is working on the #UnifiedPush connector side in #Chatty I got a chance to add the code for registering/unregistering #Matrix push gateways in #libcmatrix and Chatty (with this I can readily round trip messages up to the UP distributor):

Okay, this one might not go so well with people but this is a draft I've been sitting on since May.
Here is my opinions about the current going alternatives to Discord, especially #Matrix and #XMPP. We need to talk about this rather now than soon.

Reasons why Matrix can be better for diversity than closed platforms:
* Wide variety of implementations
* Public accountability
* Low cost
Our openness makes us stronger!
The CfP deadline for both the #Matrix conference and the Matrix dev room at FrOSCon is pretty soon. Please submit your talks now! Don't think about what to say yet, just yolo it! We don't have much time!

The conversation with @josh and @matthew about @matrix on @FLOSS_Weekly was fascinating and for once I would have enjoyed more than an hour. Matthew's frustration with trying to explain to legislators why #ChatControl and #OnlineSafetyBill are so misguided was especially striking - I do hope @EUCommission listen.

Hey, look! Our Flathub build is out now as well! flathub.org/apps/im.nheko.Nhek…
Now I just need to adapt the old app to eol-rebase to the new one...
How long does it take to forget, that you are supposed to post to the fediverse, when you did a release? Well, about a year I guess. Anyway, #Nheko 0.12.0 is out now! Took us a while (and there seem to be 800 commits in that release?!?), but our Qt6 port is finally out and with it exciting features like automatically deleting messages, ignoring users, intentional mentions and much, much more. Tbh, I forgot half the things we added and am always surprised that wasn't in 0.11.3 yet!
Anyway, grab the latest version of this #Matrix client here: github.com/Nheko-Reborn/nheko/…
Or don't, I can't tell you what to do! But if you read so far, it surely is worth giving it a try, right? :D

Still needs some polishing (permission checks and error handling, plus documentation). After that I'll set it up in prod create a room for public general testing.
...and it's now in testing! Try out the #Matrix-#Revolt bridge today:

If this lands on your feed, tell me about different features that are just missing in Matrix.
It can be anything, but please don't include memes like "unable to decrypt message" or other things that are already in the works, or maybe has already been merged (e.g media captions). Also, no, I won't "just use XMPP".
Some examples include better forwarded messages, rich profiles, or a live location sharing, just to name a few.
(I am writing something about this, boosts appreciated!)
Voting has started for the Governing Board elections and runs till May 31 – but don't delay, vote today! 🗳
All eligible voters should have received an email from the election system. Results will be published on our blog on June 3rd.
