Why do we keep using something as bad as matrix?

No native proxy support (because it depends mostly on UDP and WebRTC), bloated clients (for the major part) and not truly decentralized (most users just registered on matrix.org's servers and seem to not even know about other instances or self-hosting).

XMPP has been out for years and supports different type of E2EE, from the widely known PGP, to OTR and the newest and most used OMEMO.

No web registration is required, you can do all in-client behind a comfy proxy (like Tor) :).

Recommended clients:

Proxies for mobile devices: InviZible Pro, should be runned in VPN mode [for desktop just install the Tor daemon for your distribution]

Get out of the Matrix (literally), be free from companies and bullshit.

From a cypherpunk.

P.S. calls on this instance are disabled for security reasons and because the server is still not capable enough. Might consider to turn them on in the future.

No point in saying sorry, then being rude. You want to talk about the real world, but then your write like that.... that made me laugh.

Your title reads; 'dedicated to monero lovers and cypherpunks!'. You should rather write 'dedicated to male monero lovers and male cypherpunks!' as it would be more accurate. Don't make yourself a liar. Idc what 'service' you create or what you call it. I was giving you some insight, which you clearly lacked

As much as you’re free to be trapped in the conventional box, one is free to use or redefine languages; one may say, “you guys” among girls; anyone (male, female, neither or non-binary) is free to join some community of “brethren.” Males are welcome to live in a “sister city.”

For better anonymity, it could be actually more convenient as a decoy-shield if the name is misleading. As they say, “To fool your enemies, fool your friends first.” Although, this doesn’t change the fact that your point is valid & many people are often thinking in-the-box, including myself. If you feel someone is too stupid, you can ignore them without wasting your time & energy. Just a thought.
