Sooo... #deltachat looks like a very viable alternative to #Matrix?

Only just sat down to finally read more about it but with how ElementX with it's client apps feels more and more focussed on whatever the devs feel is fancy instead of good user interaction it wouldn't be the worst to have an alternative messenger around to switch over to.

#Chatty 0.8.6 is approaching 🎉 @devrtz tagged rc0 with plenty of fixes (including support for encrypted media).

See gitlab.gnome.org/World/Chatty/… for details.

Matrix, the open protocol for secure decentralised communications

The H and K project is a project to build a server that can be easily hosted in the basement or in another place in the house. For the basic services set up so far, #yunohost is used with #zola, #sogo and #gotosocial. Next, a #matrix server will be installed. It is currently still unclear whether it will be a full Synapse server, or one of the smaller alternatives. It is important that all data are stored in your own house without using servers of strangers on the Internet (AKA Cloud).

Based on this judgment https://www.datenschutzticker.de/2024/03/edsb-eu-kommission-därcht-datenschutz-microsoft-365/ there will probably be some need for such solutions in the foreseeable future. Smart users have already left the "cloud" or even better never used it.

A #RSS feed for these posts in the #fedverse is set up.

The Fediverse has empowered me to take back control from Big Tech. Now I want to help others do the same.

The Fediverse has helped me regain control from the behavior modification empires of Big Tech. Now I want to help other people do the same.
