Discover Matrix, the Open Source Alternative to Discord and Guilded
In this video, we take an in-depth look at Matrix, an open-source collaborative communication protocol and network that provides an alternative to closed-source platforms like Discord and Guilded. We discuss how Matrix is more privacy-focused, allowing you to encrypt chat rooms and messages.
While lacking some features of other platforms, Matrix gives you more control over your data and allows for self-hosting. We explore how Element is a common interface for interacting with Matrix and how there are other wrappers available too. You'll learn about bridging Matrix to other networks and using bots.
The video also touches on how Matrix "spaces" provide a similar function to groups or channels. Overall, Matrix provides many of the core features people expect but with a greater emphasis on privacy, customization, and open standards. However, encrypted communications do come with tradeoffs for community growth rates. Come find out if Matrix is a good fit for your needs!
