    Yeah for that you have to look to Germany, which has largely embraced Matrix, and certain states, such as Schleswig-Holstein, have embraced Linux and LibreOffice:

      Wasn’t France the one that started switching to Matrix and funded a bunch of improvements?

      https://web.archive.org/web/20180426180007/https://matrix.org/blog/2018/04/26/matrix-and-riot-confirmed-as-the-basis-for-frances-secure-instant-messenger-app/

      It’s great that Germany is doing the same, I just remember Matrix talking about money from France and helping the French government deploy Matrix for government use back in the day. A lot of the E2E encryption improvements were attributed to their collaboration with France at the time

        Yes and the French administration has access to a modified version of Matrix called Tchap.

        France is such a bizare country… They enforce E2E encryption and at the same time try to break E2E encryption?

        :/

          I don’t think France tried to break E2E yet? Some political groups repeatedly submit law projects through the democratic process, but as long as it doesn’t pass I think the best we can say is that France is against.
