Matrix Based Communication Platform
I had Few spare servers in my VRACK at OVH so few days back someone suggested me about a open source Communication System that is Decentralized and End to End encrypted .
Matrix > An open network for secure, decentralized communication
I will posting most of the Information here copying from the website itself and later in the post will also guide how to join our network .
Matrix is an open standard for interoperable, decentralised, real-time communication over IP.
there exists an open standard in the form of the Matrix Specification
it's interoperable, meaning it is designed to interoperate with other communication systems, and being an Open Standard means it's easy to see how to interoperate with it
Matrix is decentralised, which means there is no central point - anyone can host their own server and have control over their data
it is designed to function in real-time, which means it is ideal for building systems that require immediate exchange of data, such as Instant Messaging.
Matrix gives you simple HTTP APIs and SDKs (iOS, Android, Web) to create chatrooms, direct chats and chat bots, complete with end-to-end encryption, file transfer, synchronised conversation history, formatted messages, read receipts and more.
Matrix provides state-of-the-art end-to-end-encryption via the Olm and Megolm cryptographic ratchets. This ensures that only the intended recipients can ever decrypt your messages, while warning if any unexpected devices are added to the conversation.
Matrix’s encryption is based on the Double Ratchet Algorithm popularised by Signal, but extended to support encryption to rooms containing thousands of devices. Olm and Megolm are specified as an open standard and implementations are released under the Apache license, independently audited by NCC Group.
more Information can be viewed directly In their Website https://matrix.org/
Open Network
We have implemented this system in one of our servers and is avilable at https://opennetwork.life , you can simply signup and start using it (Does not required Email or Phone Number )
How ever there are other paltform you can directly connect to our server as well
you can simply go to https://riot.im/app/ and sign in as well
Click on the edit Button and change to other server and input https://back.opennetwork.life there and can login using your username and password . This application is also bridged with our Discord Server and any communication happening are cross synced in real time , making it most interesting , IF you are in our telegram or discord server and want to play around on this new Decentral Communication then please fell free to hop in and have a chitchat . We are also planning to Implement the bridge with our telegram group so that all groups are synced together .
Users can also Download elements app on mobile to connect to this APP , or Elements Desktop app , there are plenty of use cased found and this seems to be a better alternative than discord or telegram .
If any of you want to host your own home server Its pretty easy and straight forward , I will publish a Tutorial later after i learn much more about this stuff .
Cheers
