            Originally a federated E2EE alternative to IRC. But it can replace any instant messengers (Discord, Telegram, Facebook Messenger, ICQ, Jabber, etc.).

              Does “replace” mean I can use it to communicate with people who are on any of these apps?

                Sorry, by ‘replace’ I meant ‘use as an alternative’.

                Matrix has bridges, but they have to be configured on a backend (instance) and I don’t know any instances that allow them at no charge.

          Why is it dying? Is matrix as easy to use? telegram is very user friendly but matrix from what I remember has you use servers or something else and it gets complicated for normies

            Bro, it’s same as lemmy. In few years it will be more advanced, and users too. Why bigger communities risk to be banned on telegram? Maybe more better to host your community on matrix?

          I am willing to sacrifice my privacy for accessing the 2nd largest chat mobile app.

          None of my family, friends or assosiates uses Telegram as a main chat platform.

          So i use Telegram as my space to exchange and talk about NSFW content.

        I second this! That being said, I’ve been successful in recruiting almost my entire friend group over the last few years. All of the people I talk to daily or regularly are on it. Once people use it they realize how superior it is to anything else we’ve been using and end up staying.
