   Wire is now on F-Droid (HN thread):

   This paragraph in the top comment caught my interest:

   "IETF MLS is one step on a long path to messenger interoperability, e.g. Matrix plans to implement MLS. Contributors to MLS include Apple, Cisco and Facebook."

     I don't want yet another IM app, but I *do* want IM apps to interoperate enough that I don't need to care which one my friends chose to use today.

     Since the decline of XMPP, there hasn't been another protocol with enough traction to get adopted by the top-tier IM apps.

     Matrix tried (and is still trying) to position itself as that open standard, but I don't see other players falling over each other to add Matrix support.

     @codewiz I simply bug people until they install an XMPP client. It's not like they don't already have a ton of 'em anyway :blobcatderpy:

     @codewiz they're not the biggest players but Rocket.Chat will be federating with the rest of the Matrix network and Teamspeak 5 will implement messaging with the Matrix protocol (not sure about federation).
