- cpach 4y agoYou might want to read up on how Matrix works and what the spec says. (I won’t comment on Session, I’m not familiar with the finer details there.)
- _8j50 4y agoI don't use it these days but please enlighten me or show me the specific section you are talking about. Specifically, I was referring to libolm.
- cpach 4y agoThis is a starting point: https://nebuchadnezzar-megolm.github.io/ https://nebuchadnezzar-megolm.github.io/
- _8j50 4y agoLooks like they were addressed: https://matrix.org/blog/category/security https://matrix.org/blog/category/security Glad it had nothing to do with libolm itself but how it is used/not-used. I thought they had 3rd party audits for this.
- chopin 4y agoI run Signal just fine without Google Play Services. I am using e/OS which doesn't have it bundled.
- _8j50 4y agoI disabled it, it complained a lot and images/media wouldn't load.
