    The article shortens venture capital to VC. It also didn’t confuse the Matrix Foundation with a VC firm of the same name, it’s talking about Element (formerly Riot). Like, the article says this in pretty simple English, I’m genuinely confused how you could’ve missed it:

    In roughly the beginning, there was two organizations that came out of the project: The Matrix Foundation and New Vector Ltd / Riot / Element. The idea was for New Vector Ltd to carry out the necessary work and bring in the necessary funding for the Matrix Foundation to thrive. Or well, so I’ve been told.

    They had multiple funding rounds lead by the likes of status.im, Automattic, the AI and Web3 company protocol labs and others; You get the gist, lots of VC and similar funding also a questionable amount of “Web3” and bullshit generation AI. Element was then tasked with using that to build the software that would power Matrix.






  • Damn, you’re fast. The upgrade itself went fine, but Hetzner decided to throttle the speed to our backup to <3MB, so pushing the DB backup took an hour. We’re currently doing the pictrs backup and that’s going to take forever.

    Also, the backend version number seems to have messed up? Not sure why that is, but should be an easy fix once I track it down.

    Edit: version number seems to be derived from the git tag. Doesn’t seem worth to bring it down again to fix it.
