Matrix 2.0: The Future of Matrix
(matrix.org)
A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Been waiting for this for a long time! Another thing that's been on the horizon I'm eagerly waiting for is p2p. They've been working on Dendrite, which is a much more efficient Synapse, and the goal is to be efficiently running it to effectively running it on your own device as like an invisible self-host. They're working on MXIDs as well so @hostname.com wouldn't be a thing anymore. P2p with all this other tech would make Matrix really the privacy holy grail imo.
Are you sure about that? I think they'll still exist, but will be less meaningful, as a users identity will be backed by cryptography instead of their name with the HS name
afaik server domains would essentially just be aliases for a user's UUID, like how it works with rooms.
