The article alleges that Matrix:

  • has links to Israeli intelligence.
  • sends a lot of sensitive data to matrix.org servers, even when Synapse is self-hosted.

Is this information accurate?

    No, not all platforms store metadata, much less absolutely all of it unencrypted. Further, other platforms are less centralized.

      What’s a better alternative? Which other platforms are you referring to? How do they compare in terms of features and adoption? From all the decentralised, e2e encrypted platforms I tried, matrix is the only one more or less accessible for normies.
