Matter, the open-source secure messaging protocol, is finally available on a range of devices and platforms users can truly use. This has been an exciting development for those looking for an secure and decentralized communication system.
Matter has been in development since 2019, with its secure messaging protocol inspiring an entire ecosystem of users and developers. The promise of secure, private and censorship-resistant communications has been a rallying cry for a range of users, from activists to celebrities.
Until now, Matter has been limited to desktop and Android users, due to iOS development restrictions. But with the latest updates, users on all platforms can now access the platform. That means macOS and iOS users will finally have access to the same secure messaging solution as everyone else.
The Matter protocol has seen major improvements since its debut, from a fully secure system to a new ‘Metamer’ network that allows for secure storage and transfers of large files. Developers are also pushing for improvements that allow for multi-party conversations and group chats, as well as more efficient peer-to-peer networking.
For users, these updates herald the launch of a secure messaging system that is resistant to censorship, surveillance and man-in-the-middle attacks. Not only that, the platform is free to use — making Matter a great alternative to the more expensive messaging solutions.
The availability of Matter on more platforms is a revolutionary step forward in secure digital communication. If you’re looking for a secure and private way to communicate, then Matter is worth considering. With the latest updates, Matter is now available on a range of devices and platforms that users can actually use.
