Incident at Slack
I haven't had much occasion to use it (I dipped into a gaming group that used Matrix but quickly fell out of it) but https://github.com/poljar/weechat-matrix seems mostly adequate if you are a weechat user and just need the text chat features. Feels just like IRC.

Adventures in Fuzzing Matrix’s Encryption
For a nicely documented and clean Matrix client implementation in Python, see weechat-matrix[1] and the matrix-nio[2] library it's based on. There's also Mirage[3] which is also based on matrix-nio and is a GUI client.

Thoughts on the state of the freenode IRC network - Edward Kmett
The weechat plugin unfortunately cannot coexist with wee-slack (https://github.com/wee-slack/wee-slack/issues/812, https://github.com/poljar/weechat-matrix/issues/248), so if one wants to participate in the Haskell Foundation Slack, or any other Slack (e.g. for work), then Matrix is off limits. Yeah, it's just a bug that will eventually get fixed, but it does make things unnecessarily complicated. :-/

Show HN: Beeper – All Your Chats in One App
I run a similar setup although with a different set of services: IRC, Slack through wee-slack, Hangouts through bitlbee with purple-hangouts, Facebook Messenger through bitlbee with bitlbee-facebook. Slack and Hangouts mostly works, but FB Messenger is a pain, attachments rarely work and it disconnects fairly often. So if the Beeper bridges end up being more reliable (possibly due to people being paid to work on them), I might just give it a try.
That is, once weechat-matrix works together with wee-slack… (https://github.com/poljar/weechat-matrix/issues/248) :-)

Matrix 2.0: How we’re making Matrix go voom
Element X is an entirely new client written in Rust + Swift UI/Jetpack Compose (https://github.com/vector-im/element-x-ios and https://github.com/vector-im/element-x-android) which will eventually replace the legacy Element apps (https://github.com/vector-im/element-ios and https://github.com/vector-im/element-android).
The features already exist serverside; we're just working on getting them out of beta.

I am guessing you dont use video calls. Video calling in Element is broken on Android 13.

Does someone know why exactly element/schildichat is flagged with anti Features (what non-free network service does it promote?)?
Yes, you're referring to this.
