The EU is pushing to scan ALL private messages, even encrypted ones, endangering privacy, security, and fundamental freedoms across 450 million people.
This is mass surveillance disguised as child protection, and it breaks encryption, risks false accusations, and threatens democracy worldwide.

Everyone is now realizing that WhatsApp is evolving towards its latest form (https://archive.md/L3W74). If you value secure messaging, you may want to check out @signalapp or @matrix (wich is #federated). EPFL also has its own Matrix instance at https://matrix.epfl.ch (use @element as a client).

Does anyone know why Matrix doesn't notify you when a picture message is received? It's super annoying.
And I say Matrix instead of naming a client because every single client refuses to notify for it so I imagine it's something in the spec.
> the main reason this never happened
That's a shame. I cite your blog post about it often. It's a rare case of a software dev blog post that's both technically and socially insightful, worded in a way that can be read and understood by almost anyone.
> using a client with a different feature set is gong to be a problem
I can see why you'd think so, but I haven't found it to be a problem in practice. You are right that it doesn't really work with 1 account.
Curiously, @element seems to have pivoted their free client towards being more of a BBQ app. Presumably they offer more of a banquet version to enterprise users of their hosted service? Given the licensing of the Element apps, they could do that without publishing source code for it.
In any case, you got me to try it again and it's indeed a bit faster while syncing. I'll see if I can remember to use it for rooms without threads :)

I use ElementX almost exclusively for 1:1 DMs, and I suspect this is the market they're pivoting to. Leaving the team chat uses cases to other outfits like Gitter;

... ProcessOne (eJabberD);
https://www.process-one.net/blog/matrix-gateway-setup-with-ejabberd/
... RocketChat;

... and so on.
There's been a lot of negativity around #Matrix and #Element recently. And I (somewhat) joined in and expressed my frustration with it every now and then. Something I still appreciate around #Matrix is the fact, that they listen to (most of) the criticism and acknowledge (many of) their problems. There's a nice self-critical video addressing all of this recent criticism: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OyuqM7RbX5E

La Francia rende obbligatorio l’utilizzo di una sua chat di Stato. Al bando definitivamente Whatsapp e simili nella PA (Telegram e Signal), promossa invece a pieno titolo Tchap, la app di casa dedicata espressamente a tutti i dipendenti pubblici dello Stato.
L’app è costruita su #Element, un client open source che utilizza il protocollo #Matrix, anch’esso open source. Questa architettura consente la gestione sicura sia dei contenuti che dei metadati.
