Aren't you worried about name similarity to Revolut? Or old RC car game Re-volt?

Be aware people will critique if only PM are only e2e, this is what people who uses Signal and WhatsApp downplay Telegram.
Is there a group of people who use WhatsApp who care about e2e encryption and hold it as the standard? Surely its common knowledge that you cannot trust the parent company of WhatsApp, or its encryption since being broken.
There are opinions, i am not sure if they are real people who care about e2e or just astroturfing from FB.

#394How is bot support ? (Or just regular accounts that can send messages using APIs and not GUI clients) I run an instance of matrix for alert bots only but Synapse is too heavy and Dendrite is focusing too much on federation and less of chat related features.
What about Conduit? Recently entered beta and is also written in rust. https://conduit.rs/
Some screenshots and features of Conduit would be nice.

> By having a separate voice channel, it's implicitly broadcasting "these people want to talk". Is that significantly different from making a new channel and labeling it "voice channel"? To me it doesn't seem to be, but I haven't tried it. >It's also broadcasting who -is- talking That sounds like a legitimate feature request, if it's not in the issue tracker already? On the rest of your comment: thank you for the con…
> Is that significantly different from making a new channel and labeling it "voice channel"? To me it doesn't seem to be, but I haven't tried it. Yes it is. For matrix currently you'd need to have the discipline to always leave and join that text channel too when you join/leave a room. And another use case is having multiple rooms. Consider the scenario of four friends sitting in a channel and playing 2v2 games and t…
I believe mumble/teamspeak have a similar model to Matrix though, in that every room is both a voice channel and a text channel?
Maybe there should be another feature request to auto join voice comms when entering a channel?

The text channels in mumble/teamspeak are pretty much irrelevant because matrix already has good text channels, the IRC part. The text channels there are just to post the odd link or something in mumble/ts.
There's a reason discord is winning, and i'm saying that as a matrix+mumble/ts user. They integrated modern IRC and modern (worse but free)/teamspeak nicely.
Honestly, I don't really want to file feature requests about this because if it's not as good as mumble i'm not going to use it for voice.
And making it as good as mumble is not trivial, because browser tech sucks. WebRTC is entirely inadequate imo. (I have messed around with POCs myself)
