This is how Matrix democratises control over communication.īy default, Matrix uses simple HTTPS+JSON APIs as its baseline transport, but also embraces more sophisticated transports such as WebSockets or ultra-low-bandwidth Matrix via CoAP+Noise. Facebook Messenger outages reported in the last 24 hours. This means that every server has total self-sovereignty over its users data - and anyone can choose or run their own server and participate in the wider Matrix network. Even if your server goes offline, the conversation can continue uninterrupted elsewhere until it returns.

There is no single point of control or failure in a Matrix conversation which spans multiple servers: the act of communication with someone elsewhere in Matrix shares ownership of the conversation equally with them.

On top of core communication features such as instant messaging, HD quality voice and video calls. When you send a message in Matrix, it is replicated over all the servers whose users are participating in a given conversation - similarly to how commits are replicated between Git repositories. BiP is a secure and easy-to-use communication platform. The above graph displays service status activity for over the last 10 automatic checks. Matrix is really a decentralised conversation store rather than a messaging protocol. Recent glitches when server problems take place have included repeated crashing, being kicked out the app, and errors when trying to send or receive messages.
