Anone heard about it? Anything bad about security?
I’ve checked speeds with my friend, the’re quite good, file transfer speed is insane compared to signal.

It’s cool p2p protocol but nowdays no good clients, most of them unmaintained and qtox have so shit code.Feels like developer didn’t learn anything about writing safe c++ code.On android there trifa app but it’s works… pretty weird,there also atox but it’s doesn’t implemented feature about video/voice calls.
Looks like it’s got same problems as Matrix does (despite architecture diffirences).
Matrix has problems, but lack of clients and users isn’t one of them
What are the main problems of Matrix? I have searched around for this but not found anything concrete. I use Element with E2EE and haven’t had any real problems with it.
It supports unencrypted messages. Lots of metadata is not encrypted (eg all reactions).
Many orgs cant use software where users can send messages unencrypted. Its a security risk, even if the user did it by mistake.
I think most orgs would want to own the server and for messages to not be end-to-end encrypted. All connections to the server would still be encrypted.
That would be more in-line with slack or something.
If you’re referring to federation specifically then that’s going to get pretty complicated with security policies.
High resource usage (RAM, but also CPU), slow syncs especially after being offline for a longer time with many public rooms, group chats are hard with encryption (new members can’t read old messages because secure key sharing wasn’t solved yet), if your partner did not set up key backup they’ll have problems with access to messages when moving or just switching devices
I would say though that the problems of Tox sound to be more serious
That’s Synapse being bad and already having a tech debt. Matrix is surely more expensive to run than other protocols, but not much considering federated nature.
Being worked on with syncv3. New sync is crazy fast.
About encryption, it is also being worked on heavly.
The one bad thing I can say about Matrix is just how much is being “work in progress”. But I would choose a protocol that is going to do my checklist than others that would never do.
I mean efficient clients that are both easy for non-techy ppl and their 4GB of RAM.
Matrix is way better than Tox
XMPP is way better than Matrix.
