Element is launching the world’s first communications platform based on the upcoming Matrix 2.0 release. The result is blazing performance which outperforms the mainstream alternatives - across a decentralised system that enables self-hosting and end-to-end encryption - as well as open standard interoperability to revolutionise real time communication between large organisations.

Built on Matrix 2.0, Element X now rivals the performance of centralised consumer messaging apps, empowering organisations to address the shadow IT issues caused by consumer-grade messaging apps in the workplace.

The new Element communications solution consists:

  • Element X, our next-gen app with an array of new features
  • Element Call fully integrated into Element X, for native Matrix-encrypted voice and video
  • Element Server Suite, our backend hosting solution for powerful admin control and Matrix 2.0 performance

Still no Spaces support. Even the short list of rooms I've joined are unmanageable when listed flat with no way to identify which Space a #general belongs to

This is dependent on matrix-rust-sdk, when (if) it ends up supporting it, all apps using the SDK will be able to add support for spaces

What do you mean by "spaces"?

[-] Scio@lemmy.world 6 points 23 hours ago

A way to group organize discover and control access to multiple Rooms.

Here's an extra ironic Elements post describing them: https://element.io/blog/spaces-the-next-frontier/

It's the equivalent of discord servers

I can't use discord because they require phone numbers from users who use privacy tools.

What does this mean for people who don't use discord?

A space is a collection of rooms. So you have a clean list of spaces, then when you click into one of them it shows all the rooms that it contains. Without spaces, every single room is shown in one big list.

Spaces have nothing to do with Discord. They're just a way of grouping multiple Matrix rooms together into one "space" like how Discord channels are grouped into one "server."
