I use the desktop app frequently and it would be great to have a modern, fast(er) app
I believe they will explore using the new matrix-rust-sdk in Element Web further down the line, but it isn’t a priority afaik. I’d love them to continue development of Hydrogen tho :p
I don’t know what hydrogen is, and none of my search terms return anything useful. Would you mind explaining what it is?
It is a matrix client. It is maintained by element team itself and still in beta. You can read more and view the source code in the Github repo
In element desktop under lab i think you can already aktivste the new Rust encryption (which I would not really recommend though)
Yeah that’s vodozemac, which is a Matrix crypto SDK written in Rust, and is part of the broader Rust SDK they are developing (which handles nesrly everything necessary for client development, even some opinionated UI stuff).
You could run it with waydroid
