I did not say that the author is clueless, I just don’t see how you can expect fast development in a capitalist world when they don’t really sell anything

Don’t get me wrong, I am frustrated about slow progress as well, but I have the opinion, that only whining about it does not make it better

If you are not happy with the speed of progress, “just” get a team, fork it, and do it yourself

Article was way to long, so I only skimmed it

Things don’t remain as they are if other services are not encrypted anymore (or have backdoors)

It is just people who are inpatient and think that a company offering FOSS software has as much resources as a company offering proprietary data collection services which they can sell

It does what I need it to do and even more. All I need is a tool to communicate with my friends in secure way

People who want to use it as replacement for discord are those who complain most, but I use it as replacement of WhatsApp etc.

Because matrix is decentralised, like lemmy, and is therefore really hard to get compromised.

Fair argument, which I agree on 😇

But, it can prevent political problems hurting my privacy..
And there is nothing they can do against it.

If they force matrix to insert a backdoor, I just use a fork without it.

If they force my Linux distributor to add a backdoor, I just use a fork without it.

If they force a backdoor in iOS and Android, I use a fork of open source android or mainline linux for phones, without it.

If they want to hang me because I do such things, I riot.

Yea, never said that it would not be like that, and I assume that android as well, tries to find out on it’s own, if it can send the pic as heic to the desired destination, or if has to convert it on the fly to something like jpg in order fir stuff to work

I just don’t know if that is the case, that is why I specified, that I only know it for iPhone

Time to use matrix, I guess
