  It's basically (IRC + XMMP) 2.0.

    ... but in which typical client sessions look like Slack sessions, and the clients are typically heavy and slow and you would not enjoy running them on weak hardware :-(

      There are a number of different clients to choose from, including web-based, electron-based, native, terminal: https://matrix.org/clients/ https://matrix.org/clients/

        > web-based The browser is a resource hog :-( > electron-based Essentially a browser under the hood, but separate from your actual browser :-( > native, I tried a few of those last year, and had all sorts of trouble, but I guess it's time to give them another shot! Can any of them be made to behave and look like IRC chats? Not screens full of mostly white space? IIRC however - Element is not a native client. > terminal That's good :-)
