    I’m still not entirely sure what problem Sup is trying to solve. Matrix already exists. Matrix supports E2EE through the signal protocol, as well as native federation, and it bridges to almost any existing chat service. Matrix is inherently less secure, overall, than Signal, but I don’t see how Sup would fix this either – for that I’ll have to wait and see. As for using one’s fedi account to sign-in, that’s mostly just up to supporting OAuth, and not some feature that would be unique to the app.

      What I don’t like with Matrix is the load it puts on the server. It basically copies 100% of a room content to any server having one or more users registered in the room.

      So if you’re on a small server, and one user decides to join a 10k+ large room, your server may collapse under the load as it tries to stay in sync with the room’s activity. This is deterrent to self-hosting or family/club/small party servers.

      XMPP, on the other hand, has proven to be highly scalable, has E2EE, federation and some bridging services.

      The only thing XMPP does NOT have is a single reference multiplatform client with all basic features for 2023 (1:1 chat, chat rooms, voice/video 1:1, and voice/video conference) than anyone can use without wondering if the features-set is the same as the persons you’re talking to.

      And while we’re there: I’m not even sure I want a messaging account linked to any of my Fediverse accounts…

        Room replication is not as big of a deal for server as it seems. But as server admin I can say Synapse is terrible at garbage collection, the database keeps growing and growing if you don’t make your special scripts to clean it.

        I get a kick out of it when I get a dumbass captcha like that and the stupid fucking robot tells me I did it wrong. Like, the whole point is that I know how to answer them and you don’t.

    So… I guess “Sup.” beta is delayed…

    I was really looking forward to a decentralized, self hostable Signal…

      Nope, because you cannot connect with accounts from a different network.

      XMPP is pretty much federated without advertising it as being federated. This is just how it works.

    It would almost give me heart attack, lf I were to see Zuckerberg staring me from my kitchen window like that. And not just because my kitchen doesn’t have a window!

            You don’t access any Fediverse project with the same user and I never claimed there is a Fediverse service that Matrix has a OAuth option for, just that it’s just OAuth and can be implemented easily to basically everything, there are no shared accounts between Fediverse services and there are barly any Fediverse projects with OAuth implementations between each other ether, Pixelfed recently added Mastodon OAuth but even that’s a relatively new feature.

      Well, the obvious dissatvantages are that Activipub isn’t made for chat applications and doesn’t support proper encryption yet (heavily WIP but veey far from implemented)

    It’s this picture real? What the hell is the context for this guy to take a picture like that?
    He’s got to trolling everyone, acting like he’s extremely creepy as a joke.

      I think it’s made by AI. Someone thought it’s funny when he spies into our privacy.

      My goodness why didn’t I think of that
