The team behind the Matrix open standard and real-time communication protocol has announced the release of its second major version, bringing end-to-end encryption to group VoIP, faster loading times, and more.
Although many clients use the Matrix protocol, the foundation suggests new users pick up the ElementX app, which incorporates all the latest features and reflects what Matrix 2.0 can achieve.
The Element X is a stripped-down messenger app built based on the standard Element but completely rewritten for performance.
Don’t install “Element X” as it’s their beta app. They already have released a normal one called just “Element” from same company. Element X doesn’t have any way to sign up, so it’ll just be super confusing.
Intetesting, I’ll give it a try.

I’ve already tried Element and I barely use matrix so I doubt I’d miss the extra features Element X is lacking right now.
The whole thing is beta anyway ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Element X is faster but extremely barebones, definitely stick to regular Element for now
