Element have a perfectly good implementation written in Go called Dendrite. I run it. It's good.
But support is deprioritised in favour of Synapse (Python).
Moving the goalposts with Synapse does not rejuvenate Synspse, it creates a fragmented system.
Get used to being boring. I am not moving to an ever centralised Synapse only ecosystem - a single implementation is not a federated protocol. That the new Element mobile client only supports Synapse was a huge red flag.
If diversity in implementation is not encouraged with action I'm back to XMPP (+ Jitsi).
- Arathorn 2y ago> That the new Element mobile client only supports Synapse was a huge red flag. This is not true. Element X requires Matrix 2.0, which is currently only in Synapse because it has to land somewhere first. But Dendrite is implementing it (best effort, thanks to an amazing community contrib) too: https://github.com/element-hq/dendrite/pull/3493 https://github.com/element-hq/dendrite/pull/3493 and at conduwuit (one of the conduit forks) is too: https://github.com/girlbossceo/conduwuit/pull/666 https://github.com/girlbossceo/conduwuit/pull/666 There is absolutely nothing trying to lock EX to synapse.
