Matrix certrainly has its rough edges, but I find it awesome that pretty much every major Linux community now has their dedicated space. All federated, of course.
I'll forever die on the hill that #Matrix and especially #Element must support stickers and sticker packs in a first class manner to succeed in the mainstream.
United Nations International Computing Centre (UNICC) has selected #Element as its #secure communications platform, following a competitive #tender process.
Element stood out as a digitally sovereign platform which offers end-to-end #encryption. Its ability to be #federated to support multiple organisations was also a key factor in the #selection process.
#UNICC will self-host Element through an Element Enterprise subscription.
#Followerpower. Die Überarbeitung der Messenger-Matrix ist nun vollständig abgeschlossen. Über einen Tipp/Klick auf Teilen würde ich mich riesig freuen, damit sich die Messenger-Übersicht (weiter) verbreitet. ❤️ 👍
We're very happy to use a free and open source, decentralized tool for chat - @matrix has been a great resource! Fedora contributors can easily connect with each other or outside communities with a single account.
All users who make a Fedora Account are able generate a related Matrix account from fedora.im.
For some reason not all of my #Matrix conversations show up in #ElementX so I end up having two versions of #Element installed on my #Android phones which is not wonderful for battery life and data usage. Element X should have been branded as Element Beta or something along those lines.
Liebe #Follower. Nach eurem Feedback zur Messenger-Matrix habe ich diese erneut überarbeitet. Es wäre schön, wenn ihr erneut euer Feedback hinterlassen könntet. (bitte keine Anfragen zur Bewertung/Aufnahme weiterer Messenger!).
#Followerpower ist gefragt. Nachdem großen Update der Messenger-Matrix habe ich noch den Line-Messenger ergänzt. Ich bitte alle #Follower mal einen prüfenden Blick auf die Matrix zu werfen - insbesondere auf jene Messenger, die ihr selbst benutzt. Sollten Angaben nicht stimmen bzw. überarbeitet werden, so meldet das bitte. Entweder hier oder über die Projektseite.
In the past, I've used Matrix/element, and I can't say how many times better it worked. About 1.5 years ago, we decided migrate to MS 365 and I find it a pita.
Does anybody have a clue about the status of Teams<->Matrix integration? I remember, there were numerous attempts to do this using a bridge/puppet, but at least AFAIK that didn't work too well.
What is the status of this? Any insights appreciated 😎
is there a way to force fetching all encryption keys (i.e. what I think happens automatically when scrolling up in the history) without doing that manually in #element / some other #matrix client? Or is my understanding of how this works incorrect? :boost_ok:
Well, I have finally installed F-Droid on my Android mobile as I continue to move away from Big Tech. Most of the open source applications I'm using have an official version on the store! Signal seems to be the exception, so any thoughts on Element as a possible replacement please? Obviously, views on other alternatives just as welcome! #fdroid#bigtech#foss#opensource#signal#element#privacy#security
Do #Synapse#Matrix servers by now finally come with some proper admin interface, or the #Element (X) client perhaps? Or do you still have to either rely in third-party admin interfaces or curl the API directly?
I have been running Matrix server (again after several years), and it took 3GB of RAM just for a single user.
I try to optimize it by separating the tasks into several workers and implementing cache localityhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Locality_of_reference. Managed to reduced RAM usage down to 1GB while increasing cache size (from 10K to 20K).
I've also deployed the Matrix sliding sync, so any Matrix Client with sliding sync protocol can use the server. Pegelinux.top users can request access to it.
Today I tried to chat with a friend via #matrix
He sent me his matrix address.
15 mins later, I couldn't figure out how to add him (#Element client).
Tried built-in search, sent invite link, created a new 'room'. Nothing.
Sigh. We just wanted to move away from WhatsApp.
#Element is the only of my frequent "apps" that is too fucking bloated to just load properly in 1 go. Misskey, Nextcloud, Jellyfin, and my XMPP client have no trouble dealing with this admittedly pretty slow connection, but Element just gives up after 5 minutes of not rendering anything, and then just gives me an error message. A reload and another 3-ish minutes and it finally renders a chat.
Imagine having to wait for 8 minutes just to read a message. Is this something people truly consider the future of communication, unironically?
