I wish Signal was developed more openly, more like the linux kernel for a "critical infrastructure" example. I wish it had more features, so it could take the place of something like Slack. I wish it supported interoperability like fedi.
But it's good for what it is and I sure am glad it's around. People who disrespect it don't know what they're talking about.
Isn't matrix more like slack that you are looking for?
When it comes to security, I don’t think it’s close at all.
Why not? I thought it had very good security. It's E2E encrypted and the government of France uses it.
Maybe I misunderstood. I thought I heard about terrible security implementations relating to matrix servers.
Edit: I think I was remembering this: https://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2022/09/matrix-patches-vulnerabilities-that-completely-subvert-e2ee-guarantees/
Looks like I’m mostly wrong.
A while back people had a problem with metadata or something. I used to have my own server, so I wasn’t really worried about it.
But it’s been like 3 years since I’ve used it or looked into it.
Kinda curious what’s changed at this point.
