Yes, should escape from using Windows if can. But this is just news, why automatically there must be a comment like that?

What’s Matrix?

A communication protocol with main focus on chat applications. Sort of a specified and documented way how apps communicate with servers and server with each other.

In other words: A network on which you can chat with app of your choice on server of your choice. In other words: Fediverse, but for real-time synchronized things.

On Discord you are forced to use single proprietary app from single provider (that btw is really close with China’s Tencent) and to use their infrastructure. Basically using Discord is trapping yourself and friends into the will of giant company because chat systems are hard to switch.

With Matrix you can choose between many apps, but most importantly you can can choose a server or even create your own.

I like to explain protocols like that:

ActivityPub (read: Fediverse, Mastodon, PeerTube, etc.) is a way for social media site you use to ask other social media site what posts there are for another profile and proof you like or comment it. Something like two-way RSS feed.

SMTP (Email), XMPP and others are working soft of a way that you request from your email/chat provider to send a message to username@server

Matrix is also a different thing. It create a data structures called rooms that are spread across many servers, that those servers synchronize between each other pulling and pushing latest changes and then your client (app) is synchronizing latest messages with the server.

Matrix is great but in very much Work In Progress state. Many things are rewritten or not complete because of the low budget Matrix foundation has for all their ambitions.

I use it everyday, mostly without problems, but sometimes there is an error and my app cannot decrypt a message, sometimes calls do not ring… It seems like the best base for universal chat, but I don’t know if showing it to my friends and family instead of waiting a year or two more was a good choice.

May we think about one more question also?

Why is this even possible? We should have this thing called software, that should be replecable without changing the hardware, right?

smileyhead , to linux in short question by an aspiring user

Yes, you flash the installation system onto the USB stick, boot the laptop from this USB and then it should be a simple graphical installation wizard. There are plenty of tutorials online and even if all computers can be slightly different it is basically the same scheme.

Once Steam is installed Proton is automatically downloaded for games that by default use it. Games that are not officially using Proton can have it enabled in Steam’s game properties. Most would point you to protondb.com, site showing what games you can suspect to work.

It can be, in some way. For example when content is exclusive to video streaming platforms which are only available through these devices.

KDE Plasma is an desktop environment.

The kind of thing you interact outside of installed app/programs. Like the panels, window decorations (titles, close buttom, maximalize button), the way windows float and behave, system settings, etc.

Unix systems (like Linux) are very modular and you can install different desktop environments if you want. And even within those desktops are modules, like you can install different “start menu” or file manager on KDE Plasma.
