Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Databag – tiny self-hosted federated messenger for the decentralized web
Matrix already has key-based identity in the works at https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals/blob/keg... (and implemented in Dendrite at https://github.com/matrix-org/dendrite/pulls?q=is%3Apr+is%3A...). Matrix is set up to let folks go wild and change fundamentals like this; basically every Matrix Spec Change (MSC) is a small fork, which then gets merged into the main spec if it can be proven to work well in the wild.

What's the easiest way to use Matrix and add matrix-bridges for Messenger, Instagram, and Telegram etc.
I really hope that Dendrite is getting more traction and maybe there's an OIDC solution for Matrix one day.
-
Can Dendrite run on Kubernetes?
Yes there is an official helm chart. https://github.com/matrix-org/dendrite/releases/tag/helm-dendrite-0.11.2

Have any of you used a decentralized messenger before?
This is what the Matrix team is developing Dendrite for. To have a feature-complete yet small server software. But it's still in beta.

How to generate keys for program like Dendrite
So I want to setup an instance of Dendrite, a matrix home server. I have a docker-compose set, the yaml file in the correct directory, but I do not understand how to generate the key files. the dockerhub states that I should use this:

How should I set up a private chat server/client for my family ?
Dendrite, meanwhile, can be found here. They say it's in beta. I think it's a late Alpha. Dendrite's primary mode is "Monolith"; this will have many of the same scalability/balancing options that Synapse does. However the true benefit to Dendrite as I see it is the "polylith" mode where workers can swap around which worker is the master without any interruption of service. I do not think that Dendrite polylith works yet, but I might be wrong. I'll be looking at running it on a test server in January to see if it's time to upgrade from Synapse (and time to invest in 4-6 SBCs to keep three here and send 3 to 3 of my buddies to make my Matrix even more reliable).

Are group video and audio calls encrypten?
Group voice and video calls are not E2EE, and use Jitsi, but this is expected to change with Native Group VoIP Signalling.
-
So there's no online messaging service that's private, anonymous and secure?
DMs in Matrix are always E2EE, and MSC3401: Native Group VoIP Signalling means there should be E2EE in group calls.

Native Matrix VoIP with Element Call
From my perspective, the really exciting thing about this that it works equally well in mobile web browsers as well as desktop web - clicking on a link on Mobile Safari should Do The Right Thing without having to install anything.
Moreover, because it's built on Matrix, MSC3401 (https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-doc/blob/matthew/group-...) means that we'll finally have decentralised cascading video/voice conferences once the SFU (selective forwarding unit) component is added into the mix. So, for instance, users on the same homeserver will get their video feeds relayed locally with minimal latency... and then users on another remote homeserver will also get mixed locally with minimal latency, trunking the two together. If the link dies or one homeserver dies, the conference will keep going - i.e. precisely the same semantics as normal Matrix.

Signal is more secure than Telegram from my understanding, but the fact that it needs a phone number makes me wary
What metadata does Matrix protect? Encrypted state events still aren't a thing for example https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-doc/pull/3414 This means that server admins know what groups a given account is a member of, private or not, and they also have a general idea of what the topic of said groups are, even if they're encrypted. This would be a problem for groups about sensitive personal medical issues, like a private HIV survivors or Alcoholics Anonymous group.
-
For those suggesting Guilded, Revolt, Signal, or what ever else as Discord alternatives, consider this potential problem inherent in those alternatives, even if two of them are open source
The protocol itself is flexible and can be changed through spec change proposals on their Github. They're currently working on implementing threads, and they recently implemented spaces, which functionally combine the concept of Discord servers and server folders. They can also be nested.

How do I make a room with voice chat where people can leave and join without request like discord?
At the moment this only works with Jitsi. It will be implementet soon with MSC3401

Discord is a black hole for information
Something we're trying to do about this on the Matrix side is MSC2716 (https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-doc/blob/matthew/msc271...) - the ability to import archives of existing content into Matrix, and thus 'lock it open' and decentralise it for posterity: as long as one of the servers participating in that room stays alive (and the room is set up with infinite data retention, obviously) then the conversation will live on forever. (That MSC is also well worth a look for those interested in how Matrix works under the hood; MSC2716 was a surprisingly tricky problem to solve but it's basically finished now!).
Our first step will be to import all of Gitter's archives into Matrix - but we're then planning to add MSC2716 to all the existing Matrix bridges so that folks can use it to liberate chat history from Discord and Slack if desired, and avoid it getting paywalled/siloed/lost/held-hostage forever. We're also expecting to do USENET, mailing lists, forums, public IRC channels which have explicitly opted into logging... and generally archive as much possible in an open decentralised fashion, and ensure that gatekeepers can't lock up and blackhole info going forwards. After all, information longs to be free :)
