Linux Dev Time – Episode 146

March 22, 2026 · 25 min

Show notes

In the wake of Discord’s recent announcement about age verification, Matrix recently came in for a lot of criticism by a lot of people who said it’s not a viable replacement. Andy works on Matrix for a living and Amolith is invested in the XMPP world so we get into secure messaging, trade-offs between security and user experience, federation, and more.

 

Piss up at The Shipwrights Arms (just next to London Bridge station) on Saturday 27th June from 6pm until late
