On the Matrix side, we explicitly didn't forklift the same library - we wrote our own cleanroom implementation from scratch, first in C/C++ as https://gitlab.matrix.org/matrix-org/olm https://gitlab.matrix.org/matrix-org/olm and then in rust as https://github.com/matrix-org/vodozemac https://github.com/matrix-org/vodozemac. They have no code at all in common with libsignal, and are Apache licensed rather than copyleft, and have been independently audited, independent of whatever Signal gets up to (https://matrix.org/blog/2016/11/21/matrix-s-olm-end-to-end-encryption-security-assessment-released-and-implemented-cross-platform-on-riot-at-last/ https://matrix.org/blog/2016/11/21/matrix-s-olm-end-to-end-e... and https://matrix.org/blog/2022/05/16/independent-public-audit-of-vodozemac-a-native-rust-reference-implementation-of-matrix-end-to-end-encryption/ https://matrix.org/blog/2022/05/16/independent-public-audit-... respectively)

- simfree 2y agoYou have steadfastly spread the good word in spite of undue negativity directed towards the Matrix ecosystem. Thank you for your hard work on making Matrix better for everyone and explaining why in depth! You make the world a better place!
