GreenReaper — 2018-12-02 00:00:04 Support for Matrix group chat would be nice. There are already a few native clients, of course, including QT5-based clients, but given the limitations of my netbook I'd rather run as few programs as possible. libqmatrixclient is commonly used and is available under the LGPL. | ||||
cancel — 2018-12-07 15:48:34I want to add it, but Matrix has some protocol issues right now, and I'd rather wait for them to get it sorted about before I implement it. But I'm not against the idea at all. | ||||

colemickens — 2020-03-07 08:00:34 Hi cancel. Thank you for Ripcord, it is excellent. Is it possibly time to revisit this? It seems that with Mozilla starting to adopt Matrix, there is momentum building. I don't know if the protocol has stabilized but I use Spectral, which use the same lib GreenReaper mentioned, and it is pretty reliable. | ||||

assertivist — 2020-08-20 18:16:06 +1 to revisit this. There have been an explosion of clients, libraries, bots and otherwise, and it's seeing wide adoption (at the least via bridging to IRC) among open source developer communities. | ||||

keb — 2021-03-06 15:25:35 +1 for this as well. Almost all existing Matrix clients are built on web-tech. Ripcord would easily be the best Matrix client on desktop. I would gladly pay for this. | ||||
