> I'll see if I can remember to use it for rooms without threads
I use ElementX almost exclusively for 1:1 DMs, and I suspect this is the market they're pivoting to. Leaving the team chat uses cases to other outfits like Gitter;

⚙️ 3. #Federated Architecture with Centralized Core
Unlike #Matrix / #Signal, #DeltaChat avoids "coordinated upgrades" via its centralized Rust library. This enables:
- Cross-compatibility with 500k+ devices
- Interoperability with SMTP/IMAP servers (#Gmail, #ProtonMail)
- Minimal metadata leakage (TLS-encrypted headers)
➤ Study: Song et al. (USENIX Security ’24) confirmed transport-layer security fixes .

Is there anything like Schildichat Next for iOS? I have a friend who cannot use the Spaces feature in Element X, and cannot join LiveKit/Element Call voice chats in Element Classic. It would be great if there was a client which supported both of these and was on iOS.
