Is Matrix/Riot/Element related to Cerulean Studios that built Trillian for Instant Messaging?
(Because I need to be a bit more confused!)
> Matrix is an open standard for interoperable, decentralised, real-time communication over IP.
> Element is a new type of messaging app. You choose where your messages are stored, putting you in control of your data. It gives you access to the Matrix open network, so you can talk to anyone.
> Cerulean Studios was officially founded in 2000,
the same year Trillian started its long journey as an interoperable instant messaging client.
> Trillian[0] is modern and secure
instant messaging.
> Cerulean: a highly experimental new microblogging app for Matrix

- Arathorn 6y agoNo connection. And Cerulean here is just a codename; we have no desire to use it seriously - it’s more likely the threading will get pulled into Element and other Matrix clients when baked. (also, microblogging is sufficiently far from Trillian that we assumed nobody could get confused. there’s a lot of shades of cerulean out there.)
