Editing Matrix

Matrix is an encrypted chat protocol. Clients exist for multiple platforms, including iOS, Android, Windows, Mac, and Linux. The standard client is called Element, and can be downloaded at https://element.io/download. A web interface hosted by us can be found at [https://chat.pub.solar/ chat.pub.solar].

=== Homeserver address for clients ===
When logging in to clients, you'll have to provide your homeserver address. This is <code>matrix.pub.solar</code>, '''not''' <code>chat.pub.solar</code>.

=== Saving your encryption keys ===
The first time you log in, you'll be asked to save your encryption keys. ''Make sure to write these down in a secure location!'' We recommend using a password manager. Matrix messages are end-to-end encrypted, which means that the administrators of pub.solar cannot read their contents. However, if you lose your encryption keys you'll lose access to all previous messages.
