@saul we’re more of a facilitator for that kind of thing. Weird can help make the initial connection, but the message transmission would be left to any of a number of E2EE messengers we’d defer to (by integration), like #matrix, #signal, #Veilid, #polyproto etc.
Just wanted to let #retrogaming know that there's a very small chat that just started recently on Matrix for retrogaming. Would be great to get more people to join up: #rgmng:matrix.org
Congratulations to @tobias, one of the NeoChat maintainers, and to all the other successful candidates on being elected to the Matrix Governance Board! 🎉
Earlier this year, I was invited for an interview to represent the Dutch Green Party in the upcoming EU elections. Unfortunately, I did not make it on the ballot. 🗳
Yesterday, I received the good news yesterday that the community has elected me for the Governing Board of the Matrix Foundation! 🎉 I am very grateful for everyone who voted for me, and I will do my best to help Matrix become the standard protocol for instant communication. ❤️
We did it, folks! Matrix has hit a new milestone in its open governance by electing a Governing Board to guide the Foundation and provide more representative and structured input to the evolution of the protocol.
Of course, while seating a Governing Board is a big deal, the hardest work remains ahead of us. I have high hopes for what we will accomplish together! 🚀 https://matrix.org/blog/2024/06/election-results/
