Who else thinks there are too many chat apps and frustrated your chat experience is too fragmented?

@ericmigi@twitter.com built an app called NovaChat that solves this by aggregating them all in slick way. I'm an avid user and fan. Highly recommend: https://nova.chat/

Imagine what a plot twist it'd be if it turned out Bill Gates wasn't trying to inject people with tracking chips, and actually the tracking chip was in the social media app those people were using to warn people about Bill Gates.

URGENT: Calling all FOSS technologists: You may not have heard of @OpenTechFund@twitter.com, but it's likely you've benefited from their work - they seeded vital secure projects like Signal & Tor. Their mission is at risk and if we don't act we'll all pay the price. https://saveinternetfreedom.tech/

@Ca_Gi honestly that hasn't been a priority in naming. just as Matrix shows up pretty well despite being a common word, we expect the new name will too.

Really excited to share the details of the academic Matrix research that Florian Jacob and team have been up to at KIT DSN - come learn all about how Matrix decomposes over at: https://matrix.org/blog/2020/06/16/matrix-decomposition-an-independent-academic-analysis-of-matrix-state-resolution 👀🤓👩🏾💻

@vv01f @nitrokey @mike this is FUD. Matrix has a decent spec process (https://matrix.org/docs/spec/proposals), an independent non-profit foundation (https://matrix.org/foundation), and constantly sprouting new client & server implementations. There are 9 independently developed clientside implementations of Matrix's E2EE for instance. It's true the project has been driven by a single team, but we fixed that back in 2018.

Folks on the http://Matrix.org homeserver hopefully noticed a ~10x speed-up in sending messages today as we split out event persistence from the Synapse master. Some other ops need tuning too, but here's the performance from last Tuesday compared to today. Feedback welcome!
