My hope is that they're both around (& actively developed & used) in 10 years, but yes: email is much less likely to die than Matrix.

- ThePhysicist 4y agoMy prediction is that with further advances in networking, devices will be permanently online and asynchronous communication will become less relevant (because you can always directly reach your peer), so all these fancy E2EE crypto protocols will be replaced with TLS or a similar protocol.
- Arathorn 4y agoI’m not sure you could kill Matrix now even if you wanted to? Heck, given people still run gopher & WAIS & fidonet servers today, so even if everyone runs away from Matrix, it’ll still keep burbling away somewhere :)
- ThePhysicist 4y agoCertainly not kill it, I just don't think it will be nearly as ubiquitous as e-mail.
