> But have you tried to move any users over to, "wechat and signal and telegram and whatever"? no, because everyone uses something different and there's no "trillian" or meebo for all the shiny-tech. If we're going to play "encrypted chat", that no one can agree what that means, or what service to use, may as well use my own. Hopefully matrix becomes more popular (it probably won't, unfortunately*), but if not, i still won't use the likes of telegram or FB messenger or tiktok DMs or anything of that nature. there's not a good IRC client for phones, last few times i checked over the past 15 years. * Matrix has the curse of being good enough on the client side, but kind of a PITA on the server side. Synapse, the reference implementation is in python, which is single threaded, so joining a large room "as-is" out-of-the-box is not feasible. You have to split each of the synapse elements into a microservice that gets its own python instance, but the documentation was (and probably still is) quite sparse. I'm sure there's a discord where i can get help.
