Well leaving so many blanks, one can’t help you. Setting it up for my own instance was as simple as setting up web RTC. As for other instances, most including the flagship should have it enabled by default.

What setup doesn’t allow it?

XMPP clients: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liste_von_XMPP-Clients

?

We run matrix voice and video calls daily on a self hosted federated instance. It’s a non issue.

XMPP and Matrix exist, “hey let’s reinvent the wheel”

You might dig Uruky.

Good starting point

Then it would be 10.

Hop on IRC.

Two commits today, presumably after this merge you talk about, +12k, -27k. In one day. You think humans can do that? Yesterday, 22 commits and I opened a random one: +15k, -9k. Just put this supposed human effort into an actual standard like Matrix instead of vibing your own.

Look at the git and tell me. One guy, contributing 1.5m lines of code is not human made. It’s a matter of time before it falls apart and becomes unmaintainable.

It’s a slop project.

lol I made some yesterday as well!

…here we go. I have this discussion like once a week and most of the reasons stated are things that have been fixed years ago. Is this still the case, with the actual matrix specification?

Slop project, not sustainable. Matrix is the way.

Respectable, but why not NGINX?

Kinda icky considering he was a grade A racist.

There are a couple things that are public. Nothing that’s not containerized in an LXC. SSH is only available with VPN. I once locked myself out after not being at home as we had a blackout, I found no way in after two days and had to get there physically. I think I’m fine.

I think the reveal trailer was like last year? This didn’t come out of nowhere.

Element call exists and both audio over screen share and encrypted video calls are a thing since couple years now. It’s not a 1:1 discord and it’s good because of that.

I’ve been on matrix for over about two years now. There is no noticeable slowness on the client, on any that I tried (and I’ve tried a lot of them), and the chats for our groups open immediately.

There have been 0 encryption errors so far. We use encryption only in private chats and chats where we exchange important data. I have only been on large encrypted rooms (100+) once, and I did have an initial loading phase which took a couple of seconds. One should be able to live with that.

I have brought 12 people including my mother on element. Three of those people are what I consider “techy”, and the rest managed to join and use it by themselves with zero teaching from me (other than giving them the home server URL).

Hating matrix because lots of people are on the flagship server is like hating email because most people use Gmail. It’s not relevant for you. They can use whatever and you can use whatever.

I have a feeling that I have this talk once a month because there are misconceptions and misinformation on matrix. Matrix does have some issues, but these are not it.
