> In this way, I will be legally able to loosen the license over time if I so wish. Without CLA's for customers, I couldn't do that.

Or you can make it poprietary, which is the exact reason I would not want to sign a CLA with you, because I want a guarantee that my contribution remains foss.

It is not a matrix client. I haven't dug too deep into their system, but it looks to me like a centralized server with additional steps (ie. still a single entity owning the server infrastructure)

Closest thing would be either XMPP or matrix. Whether either of these is good enough for your usecase is up to you.

I would indeed suggest bitwarden. Mostly because I believe that this type of security critical software needs to be open source to be trustworthy.

Encryption in transit is assumed, and rightfully so. That still means that telegram gets full access to the plaintext and as such is able to give that information to anyone, and do with it as they wish.

I suppose there are some people pit there that think "unencrypted" here means everyone can listen in, but certainly not the hackernews crowd.

This looks cool! I have been using qalculate (https://qalculate.github.io/) recently, which seems similar. Has anyone used both and can tell me how they compare?

Matrix does actually support OAuth (in fact, the mozilla.org matrix server can only be logged in to through OAuth)

We are actually working on fixing the password sending issue, see for instance https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-doc/pull/3262

Of course, untrusted clients can do all kinds of evil things after having authenticated. (And also clients still need the plaintext password at least client-side no matter what we do)

There is currently no transition path from synapse to conduit. That's not to say it's impossible, there is just no work put into it, yet.

IIRC matrix was started because of how terrible RCS is.
