Matrix has working demos of p2p matrix with their dendrite server, which is matrix where servers are light enough to run on a non server device. That is the ultimate goal and it’s very possible we’ll see it within a few years.
Matrix is more than anything an open spec for how devices talk to each other.
Dendrite, a Golang program, compiled with WASM to run in a browser to make the browser act like a mini server and thus connect to other Matrix servers. Its honestly a wonder they got that hot mess working at all, and IMHO this will require a complete re-implementation to ever be anything worth considering.
Please tell me this is a parody. Matrix was already kludgy around encryption and authentication, especially for rooms. And very kludgy in integrating with other protocols.
