What do you think about Matrix (https://matrix.org/)?

"An open network for secure, decentralized communication"

It is a federated and fully open specification alternative to the popular
gaming/multimedia chat application Discord. Old timers would probably
prefer text-only IRC, but IRC is starting to be (slowly) replaced by
Matrix in the FOSS community.

Mozilla has not yet decided, but they have already deprecated
irc.mozilla.org. I am curious to find out what chat application/server
they will decide on, as their decision will undoubtedly shape the FOSS
landscape.

WARNING CLEARNET: http://exple.tive.org/blarg/2019/09/06/forward-motion/

They will decide between Mattermost, Matrix, Rocket.Chat and Slack.

Unfortunately, Matrix currently has no I2P or Tor support and the current
reference implementation for the server is not very optimized and slow, so
you can't run it on a micro VPS like you could with IRC or E-Mail servers.

it looks very nice, thought through, well documented and everything. easy
enough to integrate into other software, it seems.
from the basic idea, i understand that it is practically the same as
usenet, overchan, syndie, aktie, fediverse or also these forums here:
federation is the key.
according to https://matrix.org/docs/spec/ the communication between the
servers runs on https, which makes it perfectly compatible with tor and
i2p, just proxying should be enough.

could be really interesting....

cheers

There are alternative clients that can be used, but the web/electron one
(Riot) is the most feature complete right now.

the riot app did not work for me using tbb, even with js enabled. i would
probably prefer weechat
(https://matrix.org/docs/projects/client/weechat-matrix/)
it seems that the devs have put in a lot of work to make this bridgeable
to other services:
https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-appservice-bridge/blob/master/HOWTO.md

i see a future for this.
