#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.
@kuketzblog Eine prima Übersicht, um sich selbst schnell zu informieren oder mit Anderen auf einer Faktenbasis zu diskutieren.
M.E. ist @simplex die Lösung mit den meisten grünen Feldern. Wer also auf eine Nutzung im Web Browser verzichten kann und #InstantMessaging primär auf dem #Smartphone (und wenn auf dem Desktop, dann im selben Netzwerk wie das Smartphone) verwendet, der könnte auf diesen privatsphärefreundlichen und #PostQuantum sicheren #Messenger wechseln. 🙃
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 😎
@riaschissl Teams is a rough tool for sure. Given the resources MS has it's bewildering. Matrix is on my "to get around to check out" list; biggest issue will be good iOS and Android apps.
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
I wasn't aware of this, but they have an early pull request on working on #PQXDH and they also stated that they are working on:
"Ongoing futureproofing work includes Post Quantum resilience via Kyber post-quantum KEM and PQXDH key exchange, as well as support for Messaging Layer Security (MLS, RFC9420) for improved scalability for group encryption."
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.
