#Notification#apps: Early #messengers walked with a bell through villages and towns. We still have this bell symbol on Mastodon!
People used this technology especially before the beer was brewed. Their voice system intoned aloud: It is announced that from tomorrow morning onwards, no one will be allowed to shit in the stream where the honourable Council brews beer the day after tomorrow.
I've read that #WhatsApp wants to interoperate with other #messenger applications, to align with #DigitalMarketsAct. My problem with their #UX approach is that it's only planned as a third-party tab, with no promise of a setting that would place all the chats on the single page.
I realize they have security reservations, but I smell a dark pattern here: only do I message my people on WhatsApp from Matrix, they'd have to change tabs, making a chat with me stick like a sore thumb - or not stick at all.
Hot bottom-line: hiding behind a tab is no different than cutting off #interoperability altogether. Multi-messenger chats should become a first-party feature in synchronous software, to comply with #DMA. Targeted apps that don't care about such regulation have no future.
Цікаво, що деякі з цих IP-адрес мають шкідливі індикатори і б'ються по VirusTotal... Де гарантія того, що через них не пролізе бекдор...? Ми, звичайно, відфільтруємо подібні з'єднання фаєрволом і зашифруємось vpn'ом. А звичайний користувач? У нього усі "брами" відкриті по дефолту...
Element X for Android and iOS is a whole new approach to the Matrix messaging app
A bit like Telegram has a Telegram X for highlighting new beta features (no neither have anything at all to do with the X network), so has Element now “ignited” their Element X messenger. It will eventually become the main Element app.
