  The client fractal was rewritten for GTK4 (Called fractal-next) and some days ago, the GTK3 Fractal is now the legacy one and Fractal-Next is the new Fractal

  Doesn't look like they've added any features with the GTK4 build, just from scrolling through the recent commit history. Much like a lot of these recent GTK4/Libadwaita apps, it looks like they're just maintaining feature parity with the old version while removing the flexibility the older versions had (eg. more packaging options, better customization, none of the reviled "flat button" nonsense, more accessibility options for people with vision impairments, etc). Kinda annoying, but at least the writing is on the wall that I need to find a new Matrix client.

    The new version was completely rewritten from scratch to use the new matrix rust SDK. As a result it supports E2EE, while the old version does not support that.
