And I just joined another #Fediverse project (#Matrix) so that I can write about it for a future issue of #thefutureisfederated

LOVING the #Element app - it looks really modern and elegant. And it's very intuitive and easy to use.

If you have any Matrix rooms to recommend, I'm all ears 🤗

Funny how this blog post of mine from 5 DAYS ago is already out-of-date, as I "only" had 9 Fediverse accounts then: https://blog.elenarossini.com/fediverse-summer-3-lessons/



What are people using now to bridge matrix - irc - xmpp?

Is this also fallout of VC money being more sparse and matrix having to focus on core stuff?

🧵 The #FreeSoftware / #OpenSource status of #Matrix, #Element and other related projects is in serious trouble. The main company running the ecosystem, @element, will fork the main projects from their previous steward, the @matrix Foundation, make AGPL-3.0 the new default license, and put a #CLA in front of it.

This is a common scheme called Rights-Ratched-Model as coined by @webmink. I see a number of upcoming changes that are bad for user freedom, interoperability and communities:

Free Software Community of India (#FSCI) statement on banning of apps like @element and @briar

"Federated, peer-to-peer, encrypted, Free Software apps/software like #Element and #Briar, should be promoted. They are key to our national security as they provide means to enable sovereign, private and secure communication to citizens of India. Element has been embraced by Governments of France, Germany and Sweden which should be an example for #India."

India blocks 14 apps including #element, @briar, threema, imo etc

"While tracking down one of the communication, agencies found that the mobile application does not have representatives in India and it is difficult to track down activities happening on the app".

This is a dangerous precedent and opens the door to ban any app/service not having a presence in India. We should challenge this order in the Supreme Court.

#Element NON è totalmente decentrato! #Session e #Briar lo sono.

Per chi è stanco di Messenger, Signal, Telegram, Whatsapp ... ecc. perchè cerca qualcosa di decentralizzato, oltre che cifrato di defaut, senza numero di telefono o e-mail richiesti, con messaggi vocali, videochat ecc ...

#Element
