Discord is making a huge change that will enact age restrictions for all accounts until users verify their age with ID or face scans.

    Matrix is a possibility but its sometimes a bit of a hard sell to people.

      Matrix is not going to catch on. It is too intense for the average person. My friend didn’t want to bother with all the security features and couldn’t sign in without issue constantly.

        That’s only really a problem if it’s end to end encrypted right?

            Last I remember using it. it was a room setting or something. I don’t remember exactly, but it was always as pain with the friends I had it toggled on with, but otherwise fine.

              Yeah but it’s on by default. And it’s not clear at all that you can turn it off or how.

                Ah yeah, I don’t know if I agree with it as default when it’s janky. But I get their logic.

      I’ve used Matrix and it’s… a bit unwieldy to say the least.
