Agreed on both points. XMPP is nowadays so much different than decades ago. I've migrated my family to Conversations and they're super happy with it. Google's constant messanger churn tires regular users that just want…

I don't know why but comparing Matrix.org Foundation with standardization organizations such as IETF seems just not right. Maybe it would be more correct to compare Matrix.org with XMPP Software Foundation?

I was under the impression that DMARC always requires DIIM. One unanswered question: should the mailing list software rewrite Return-Path? (to detect bounces) wouldn't that trip DKIM alignment?

I'd rather advise to use Web Key Directory that is trivial to setup (have https and put a key file in one special location). WKD is also widely supported by OpenPGP software (including ProtonMail, GnuPG, OpenKeychain).…

This is a solution to a non-problem. Hosting taken down git repos is easy an due to gits design all developers already have the source code. The real problem is hosting issues and PRs in such a way. Github has an API…
