Matrix is an open standard for decentralized secure communications. Matrix’s mission is to make messaging as open as email. For those who do not know us, data sovereignty and end-to-end encryption seem to be really potent differentiators especially for governments and civic institutions. The French government has a massive Matrix deployment under the name "Tchap", and the German military began rolling out a similar initiative called "BwMessenger" in November: https://esut.de/en/2020/11/meldungen/24138/matrix-messenger. On the opposite end of the spectrum you've got Mozilla, who replaced their IRC network with open, federated Matrix and saw greater far greater community engagement as a result.
Now is an excellent time to join the team as we try to make a genuine challenge to centralised, walled garden messaging technology.
