Matrix is basically an email alternative. Though I think the address format is needlessly complicated. Email is perfectly good at addresses!
- tptacek 7y agoThis is an instance where I'm perfectly happy to talk up Matrix! People would be a lot better off using Matrix than they would be trying to encrypt emails.
- quadrifoliate 7y agoThis is potentially the most interesting subthread on this otherwise well trod discussion. Some large entities (German Govt., Mozilla) have announced moves to Matrix. I'm curious as to whether there is anything inherent in the protocol that makes it more efficient for longer-form conversations than Signal (Matrix is also supposed to be for IM after all).
- qqii 7y agoIn that case why not something simpler like XMPP + OMEMO?
