From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Try gomuks. It's cli written in go. Highly configurable and if your terminal supports images, it'll show them too.
This client is cool! Thanks for the suggestion!
Thanks. I'm halfway through installing all of you people's recommendations. I'm a bit disappointed in the way encryption is handled in matrix. I'm again running into issues. gomuks gives me its fingerprint but element doesn't do that kind of verification any more. Guess I have to try more client until I find one that combines all kinds of verifications and I can get encryption set up and connected between them.
