Can you recommend a lightweight matrix chat client to me? - eviltoast

My laptop is getting old and i can’t have Element eat up half of my RAM. There are many more clients out there but which one is good? aka "the best? ;-)

My requirements: lightweight, encryption 100% supported, active development/community. runs neatly 24/7 in the background.

Should also support the latest features, let me customize when to get notifications: priorities / muted chatrooms. And ideally also look clean and run on the Pinephone. But that’s optional.

I don’t care which desktop environment or cli.

What do you use?

    Sounds a bit too centralized for me

    You can turn it off however that makes join times to any channel with history (say… the dendrite release announcements channel for example) unbearably slow to join.
