“Sovereign doesn’t mean alone” cool demo of NATO, France, Sweden, and Germany separate #Matrix installations and operations exchanging fully secure messages. #MatrixConf - this was the demo I’ve been most excited to check out! Great team effort.

At the #MatrixConf 20-23 Oct in Malmö. @nato @numerique_gouv Earlier, we heard from the developer of Fluffy Chat, aiming to bring the "decentralisation dream" to individuals, too: https://fluffychat.im/. @krille Follow along: https://conference.matrix.org/watch
