Hi,<br>
<br>
1. We did an error encrypting battlemesh room, but we did not did
anything to avoid doing stuff not relevant. Looks like it is
relevant because we reached the level of someone complaining
publicly. So, someone please solve the problem just creating a new
battlemesh room as part of battlemesh community/space in matrix,
inviting everyone and renaming current one as old. If nobody does
it, when I have some time I will do it myself.<br>
<br>
2. No, you don't need an electron app to run the element thing, in
my case, I use a specific firefox profile with pinned tabs for the
chats I use [1]. By the way, signal is the only "app" that cannot be
ran on browser, shame on them.<br>
<br>
3. Continuing 2, there a lot of possible matrix implementations,
Daniel, did you see this link? [2]<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>
Pedro<br>

<p>HI Daniel, all,<br>
<br>
<br>
Some advice for a co manager of a matrix-server of an
organization.<br>
<br>
I have noticed that the room on matrix.org for battlemesh is
encrypted. This does -indeed- mean that if a user loose his/her
end-to-end encryption keys, they will lose access to these
messages.<br>
</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>On our server, although it is possible for public rooms to be
encrypted, we advice people who want to set up a room not to do
that, just to avoid the issues you have.<br>
In addition, you can ask yourself what is the additional value
of encrypting messages in a room that is public to anybody
anyway, Everybody can access the room and can see (and copy) all
posts in the room anyway.<br>
<br>
But, then, what we see a lot is that people start out with a
limited room with just a few users, where you might say that
encryption might make sense, and latter on decide to open up the
room to everybody.<br>
<br>
It is not possible to disable encryption of a room where
encryption has been activated, so the most easy solution is
simply create a new room, notify everybody of the existence of
the new room and disable posting of a new messages in the old
room.<br>
After -say- half a year, you remove the old room.<br>
</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>Like any tool, matrix -or chat/discussion platform in general-
requires some experience. It's usually not something you do
right the first time.<br>
<br>
<br>
Hope this helps.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Cheerio! <br>
Kr. Bonne.<br>

<pre class="moz-quote-pre" wrap="">Hi everyone!
I see that people are trying to send messages to me on Matrix [1].
Unfortunately, and not for the first time, my matrix client has lost
it's private key. Loading the stored key backup also doesn't seem to
work, or at least doesn't allow me to read those messages.
I hereby declare that I cannot read messages on Matrix and will not
put any further effort into (again) recovering that account, just for
it to then (again) not to work after a longer period of not using it.
Storing private keys in cookies and not having a working option to
load them from disk 6 months after storing them, repeatedly,
disqualifies Matrix for me. Plus I'm not willing to run yet another
full-featured browser (Electron) jsut for yet another messenger.
I know that there are CLI clients, but they are basically head-less
browsers or bloatware written in Go and similar waste of RAM.
tl;dr: If you want to reach me, please send emails.
Ask for my Signal username by email if you want perfect-forward-secrecy.
