Welcome to the tchncs.de Matrix Server
Description
Matrix is a modern way of decentralized communication, internet of things and much more. We here at tchncs.de are proud to host one of the first Matrix servers out there, as it is for us what we always hoped to get with Jabber (XMPP). Not only is all the fancy modern stuff - like uploads or chathistory - built-in by default, there also is a great cross-plattform-client available. Even after some difficulties with running Matrix, we continue to believe that Matrix is the future and you are invited to become part of it!Using Matrix - with Element
To make it as easy as possible, we are hosting a web-version of the popular Slack-oriented Element-Client for you.๐ก MOTD:

Sliding sync
This Matrixserver supports the upcoming new syncv3 protocol, also known as sliding-sync. It can speed your Matrix experience up significantly. Note that is not released yet.
If you want to give it a try, have a look at the Element-X mobile app. Also Element-Web/Desktop supports this but it less reliable as of now. It cannot autodetect the url, so in your Labs-settings, configure syncv3.matrix.tchncs.de
for sliding sync. You might need to enable Labs in your client first.
