End to end encryption is a large focus of Matrix, and it's also completely open source. +Matrix is an open-source communications platform, allowing you to chat to communities of your choice. An important feature of Matrix is its end to end encryption, allowing you to talk privately and securely. ## Comparison to Discord -Matrix has many parallels to Discord, but also many differences.

This comparison may be useful to you when migrating: -- Instead of Discord "channels", you have Matrix "rooms". Rooms can both be joined with in a space (explained below), or standalone, unlike Discord. They can be set up to be end to end encrypted, but for large rooms it's more reliable to run without encryption. -- The equivalent of a Discord "server" is a matrix "space". Spaces are essentially a directory of rooms, where they are grouped under one icon (depending on your client), and rooms within the space are shown and are available to join. However, you do not have to join all rooms in a Matrix space. +- Instead of Discord "channels", you have Matrix "rooms". Rooms can both be joined within a space (explained below), or standalone, unlike Discord. They can be configured to run without end to end encryption, but for large rooms it's more reliable to not use encryption. +- The equivalent of a Discord "server" is a Matrix "space". Spaces are essentially a directory of rooms, where each room is grouped under one icon (depending on your client), and rooms within the space are shown and are available to join. However, you do not have to join all rooms in a Matrix space. ## Choosing a Client Matrix is purely a protocol, and you can use any "client" you want. Clients are front-ends for Matrix, basically the way you actually see messages and join rooms. There are countless clients, but we recommend one of the following for the best possible experience: -- [Cinny](https://cinny.in): Cinny provides a Discord-like UI and some really nice features. You can use it on the web or as a Tauri app, and it works on Linux phones very well. -- [FluffyChat](https://fluffychat.im): FluffyChat is made with flutter, so it has great cross-platform support, so it's usable on iOS, Android, Linux, Web, etc. It also has some features that Cinny doesn't, but Cinny is slightly more intuitive in my opinion. +- [Cinny](https://cinny.in) provides a Discord-like UI and some really nice features.
