These projects are fun to hear abt because I always go “damn I wish I heard about that six years ago” only to find out it is emerging from 8 years of developmental purgatory. So in a way I got to skip the wait

Nothing could be worse than an Electron client. Honestly for me it’s XMPP > Delta Chat > Matrix > SSignal/Telegram/etc. Matrix integrations (apps) don’t even work on any client and they moved the bloated server improvements into a walled garden

Correct me if I’m wrong, but I heard that Matrix client is lagging behind the others in terms of cryptography?

To be honest, Yandex’s proprietary services are irreplacable and significantly better than Google. Many more languages too.

I had never read their forum threads on Fairphone and eOS until the other day. Makes me glad I ruled them out for other reasons.

Fairphone looks really bad after reading some of the GrapheneOS forum threads covering them. Calyx is still on hiatus over the security patch thing
