Dear folks, what do you use for #Matrix? I need a client with #screenReader #accessibility in mind. Better #Windows desktop software, but if not, web is also okayish. Thanks!
In my view, technology is built to make our lives easier, and in many ways, it isn't these days. It is truly my opinion that the only way #tech can be sustainable is if it's built using #FOSS, and does not give ultimate control to any 1 entity, individual or corporate. If technology is to help the people, it must be built *for* the people.
As the hype for #decentralized systems (e.g.: #mastodon), where no could buy the whole service, continues, I want to also introduce decentralised #communication. Ever heard or tried a #matrix #messenger? A new, decentralised protocol of communication to allow multiple participants join the network with different clients and servers. You can choose whatever fits you best. You probably wanna start here to try it: element.io/ (Get a client, choose a server) For more background information, see here: matrix.org/ @matrix
I put together a basic proof of concept for using existing #Mastodon installations as SSO for #Matrix, using #Synapse. Here's what the authentication and authorization flow for that looks like!
While Mastodon doesn't support #OpenlD Connect, OIDC is just OpenlD on top of OAuth2.0. If your app allows configuring all URLS for your ldP you can use nearly any OAuth2.0 provider.
Avatars currently aren't supported via this (| added one) but can be! Working on a patch for Synapse!
Mainly #German #podcast: Each Friday an interview recording of the #MatrixCommunitySummit #Berlin 2022 will be released. The event took place in August. We interviewed a total of 8 #Matrix community members.
This week, you can hear from Alex and Valentin. We talked about the summit, what went well and what activities to add next time.
Aus Berlin meldet sich der Matrix Salon – ein Meetup, welches sich mit dem Kommunikationsprotokoll matrix.org auseinandersetzt.
Wir bringen Menschen zusammen, die mit Matrix arbeiten oder ihren Verein verbinden wollen.
We are going to be looking at Trinity, Benjamin's supercool side project that lets you write #matrix bots in #rust & WebAssembly. Come for the coolness, stay for the endless hilarity that ensues as I attempt writing Rust code and hope live to tell the story github.com/bnjbvr/trinity
Today I'm refactoring our rich text editor component for #Matrix. I have in mind a 3-layer structure:
* high level operations like "bold" * medium level that preserves all the invariants (e.g. no adjacent text nodes) * low level that does simple things like add/delete a node and does not preserve invariants
Would #dendrite not be better suited as a #matrix server on a NAS? I run dendrite on a pi4 with #FreeBSD, and it works pretty good. I found synapse quite heavy on a SBC,
I think two things that makes #NixOS and #Neovim great are: (1) The Community /People are simply awesome (2) Both communities have standardized on #Matrix so I chat to everyone on #Matrix! If you are on #Matrix lets chat, if not join! Find out more via @matrixdotorg@twitter.com or AMA!
Hi thunderbird! can #matrix support be a priority or something? I used it but get duplicated messages and theming gone, and it's interface is not quite good as thunderbird as a whole
We are issuing security releases across Thunderbird ESR 102 and Beta to address vulnerabilities that affected #Matrix (which the Matrix team was quick to catch and patch!)
If you're using Matrix in Thunderbird, we recommend manually updating your Thunderbird client.
Do you use #Prometheus, #Grafana or #UptimeKuma for monitoring? Then you might enjoy alertbot, a simple tool that forwards monitoring alerts to #Matrix chatrooms. Adding it is as simple as setting up E-Mail alerts and much more flexible. How to get started? 🧵 ⬇️
Hab einen Blog-Post geschrieben, warum wir Sprachnachrichten nicht per-se verteufeln sollten. #FluffyChat ist übrigens der erste allgemeine #matrix Client, der Sprachnachrichten unterstützt hat.
This release brings improvements to stability and performance.
Sorry, I couldn't resist. As a #matrix client starting with N, this had to come at some point. More seriously, we fixed a few crashes and also made it possible to create and manage your communities!

After about 15 years of using Mutt for all my email needs, Matrix support in the new Thunderbird 102 release lead me to give it a try again.
While the Matrix support (beta!) is still pretty crude, it works even with encryption. Not bad and I have to admit that the rest of the application looks/works pretty well too. Maybe it's time to return to a GUI e-Mail client for a while. We'll see #Thunderbird #Matrix
Latest project released, npmjs.com/package/@matrix-org/…. Node.js bindings to the Rust matrix-sdk-crypto crate. It exposes the required API to write bots and bridges for Matrix and other networks. Please come try it!
Welcome to the [Node.js] binding for the Rust [`matrix-sdk-crypto`] library! This binding is part of the [`matrix-rust-sdk`] project, which is a library implementation of a [Matrix] client-server.. Latest version: 0.1.0-beta.
!Friendica Support Although many people here are already aware, I figured I'd post about the existence of a Friendica specific chat room on the Matrix network. Conversations have ranged from qusetions about installations, troubleshooting, and development. #friendica #matrixmatrix.to/#/#friendi.ca:matrix…
