StrypeyElementX is *so* much faster than the current stable versions of Element and its various soft forks (I'm currently using SchildiChat).As I've said before, I'm guessing it will take another 6-12 months for all the Matrix 2.0 upgrades to be rolled out and fully stabilized in the various app and server software. But if ElementX performance is anything to go by, the new and improved Matrix ecosystem will be well worth an open-minded test.<a href="https://mastodon.nzoss.nz/tags/Matrix" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Matrix</a> <a href="https://mastodon.nzoss.nz/tags/Matrix2" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Matrix2</a> <a href="https://mastodon.nzoss.nz/tags/Element" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Element</a> <a href="https://mastodon.nzoss.nz/tags/ElementX" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ElementX</a> <a href="https://mastodon.nzoss.nz/tags/SchildiChat" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SchildiChat</a>

Strypey"Honestly, it is insanely exciting to see Matrix having evolved from the 'good enough for enthusiastic geeks' to the 'wow, this feels better than Signal' phase that we’re entering now. Meanwhile, matrix-rust-sdk is tracking all the latest Matrix 2.0 work, so any client built on matrix-rust-sdk (Fractal, Element X, iamb, etc) can benefit from it immediately."<a href="https://mastodon.matrix.org/@matthew" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@matthew</a>, <a href="https://mastodon.nzoss.nz/tags/JoshSimmons" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#JoshSimmons</a>, 2024<a href="https://matrix.org/blog/2024/12/25/the-matrix-holiday-special-2024/#continue-reading" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://matrix.org/blog/2024/12/25/the-matrix-holiday-special-2024/#continue-reading</a>(1/3)<a href="https://mastodon.nzoss.nz/tags/chat" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#chat</a> <a href="https://mastodon.nzoss.nz/tags/Matrix" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Matrix</a> <a href="https://mastodon.nzoss.nz/tags/Matrix2" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Matrix2</a>

Strypey<a href="https://mastodon.matrix.org/@matrix" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@matrix</a> is going through another wobbly period, when the UX gets a bit unreliable. I'm guessing it's to do with all the big changes being made for Matrix 2.0, and the work on DMA-mandated interop?Last time Matrix got wobbly was when the core team were working on RiotX and rebranding to <a href="https://mastodon.matrix.org/@element" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@element</a>. Things settled down a *lot* after that, and the UX became much smoother. Fingers crossed that the same will happen again.<a href="https://mastodon.nzoss.nz/tags/Matrix" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Matrix</a> <a href="https://mastodon.nzoss.nz/tags/Element" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Element</a> <a href="https://mastodon.nzoss.nz/tags/Matrix2" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Matrix2</a>

Fossery Tech :debian: :gnome:FOSS NEWSYesterday was the Software Freedom Day, organized by Digital Freedom Foundation, there were various smaller events worldwide to promote FOSS, various organizations, companies hosted their own events, including FSF, Earth Cause, Nextcloud, System76 and TUXEDO Computers, but anyone could host their own event: <a href="https://news.itsfoss.com/software-freedom-day/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://news.itsfoss.com/software-freedom-day/</a> (Unfortunately it isn't promoted enough, very few people know about it, I also heard about it first 2 days ago, from <a href="https://mstdn.social/@BrodieOnLinux" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@BrodieOnLinux</a> 's video. It's really sad because it would be really important to deliver the message to average people that they don't need to stick to big tech's crappy services just because education system taught them to do so, there are some great free software projects which respect users much more, don't just treat them as records in a database to be sold.)Element X and Element Call are now officially available for mobile, based on Matrix 2.0, providing better performance, exciting new features: <a href="https://alternativeto.net/news/2024/9/element-x-call-and-server-suite-launch-with-matrix-2-0-for-high-speed-and-e2ee-messaging/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://alternativeto.net/news/2024/9/element-x-call-and-server-suite-launch-with-matrix-2-0-for-high-speed-and-e2ee-messaging/</a>3/4<a href="https://social.linux.pizza/tags/WeeklyNews" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#WeeklyNews</a> <a href="https://social.linux.pizza/tags/FOSS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FOSS</a> <a href="https://social.linux.pizza/tags/OpenSource" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#OpenSource</a> <a href="https://social.linux.pizza/tags/SoftwareFreedomDay" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SoftwareFreedomDay</a> <a href="https://social.linux.pizza/tags/SoftwareFreedom" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SoftwareFreedom</a> <a href="https://social.linux.pizza/tags/FreeSoftware" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FreeSoftware</a> <a href="https://social.linux.pizza/tags/DigitalRights" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#DigitalRights</a> <a href="https://social.linux.pizza/tags/UserRights" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#UserRights</a> <a href="https://social.linux.pizza/tags/DitchBigTech" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#DitchBigTech</a> <a href="https://social.linux.pizza/tags/Matrix" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Matrix</a> <a href="https://social.linux.pizza/tags/Matrix2" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Matrix2</a> <a href="https://social.linux.pizza/tags/Element" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Element</a> <a href="https://social.linux.pizza/tags/ElementX" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ElementX</a> <a href="https://social.linux.pizza/tags/ElementCall" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ElementCall</a> <a href="https://social.linux.pizza/tags/Chat" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Chat</a> <a href="https://social.linux.pizza/tags/ChatPlatform" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ChatPlatform</a> <a href="https://social.linux.pizza/tags/GroupChat" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#GroupChat</a> <a href="https://social.linux.pizza/tags/FosseryTech" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FosseryTech</a>
