    Encryption is a mess with Matrix. Randomly doesn‘t decrypt messages. Most non-techies don‘t get the process of saving key files or creating secure passphrases.

      Looks like someone didn’t read the article. See part 4: Invisible Encryption. (Also note the Conclusion paragraph that explains the new functionality is only just starting to appear in clients.)

        I did. I referred to the current version and the comment that is has always been a great project.

          So you were aware that this announcement includes fixes for the encryption issues, yet you decided to post a comment complaining about them anyway, ignoring the point of this post and giving readers the false impression that the issues are unaddressed.

          And you did it just to contradict someone who finds the project useful.

          That’s not helpful to anyone. Quite the opposite, I’d say.

      Honestly in my experience all issues with decryption have been solved for more than a year. No matter if im using android, web or desktop. Idk about apple shit but thats just not a priority probably.

      Todays desktop release finally enables the new voice/video calls/rooms feature which was the last serious complaint i had.
