       📹 MatrixRTC: Building Real-Time Applications on Matrix MatrixRTC is poised to become the foundation for real-time applications built on the Matrix protocol, unlocking new possibilities for secure, extensible communication. This session dives into the latest developments in MatrixRTC, focusing on the final pieces of its proposed specification and showcasing how it enables a broad range of real-time applications. https://youtu.be/X8yAwFq9nAU

       The Foundation is at a crossroads. We need to raise an additional $610K to break-even, and more immediately to raise $100K to keep our bridges running.As a neutral custodian for the specification and much more, the Foundation is key to the success of Matrix. It is time to step up for it.https://matrix.org/blog/2025/02/crossroads/

       🕙 CfP Deadline Update 🕙We received plenty of good proposals already, but people reached out to ask for an extension of the Matrix Conference CfP.We're happy to extend it until the end of June. If you haven't submitted already, now is the best time!https://cfp.2025.matrix.org/matrix-conf-2025/#MatrixConf2025

       IMPORTANT: We're pre-disclosing two high severity CVEs in Matrix's federation protocol, which will require a coordinated upgrade on July 22nd of all servers running in untrusted federations. Client developers may need to make minor changes too. Please see https://matrix.org/blog/2025/07/security-predisclosure/

       We’ve now published the details of the security issues which we addressed in Monday’s coordinated security release of Matrix: read all about Project Hydra at https://matrix.org/blog/2025/08/project-hydra-improving-state-res/ and please upgrade your servers and rooms where applicable.

       So: the matrix.org database secondary lost its FS due to a RAID failure earlier today (11:17 UTC). Then, we lost the primary at 17:26. We're trying to restore the primary DB FS (which could be fastish), while also doing a point-in-time backup restore from last night (which takes >10h). We believe the incremental DB traffic since last night is intact however. Apologies for the downtime; folks on their own homeserver are of course not impacted.

       Sorry, but it's bad news: we haven't been able to restore the DB primary filesystem to a state we're confident in running as a primary (especially given our experiences with slow-burning postgres db corruption). So we're having to do a full 55TB DB snapshot restore from last night, which will take >10h to recover the data, and then >4h to actually restore, and then >3h to catch up on missing traffic. Huge apologies for the outage. Again, folks using their own homeservers are not impacted.

       Status update: we’re 47TB through restoring the 55TB db snapshot of the matrix.org DB, but then have to rebuild the DB and replay the subsequent 17h of DB traffic, which will take several hours. Thank you for your patience, and apologies once again for the outage.

       Status update: we've restored the 55TB snapshot and subsequent incremental backups, and are about to replay the remaining traffic since the backup. There are still several unknowns, but if things go well the matrix.org instance should be back in 3-4 hours.

       Right, matrix.org is back online as of 17:00 UTC. The server is struggling a bit as it catches up. Huge apologies again for the outage; postmortem + ways to avoid a repeat will be forthcoming. See also https://www.theregister.com/2025/09/03/matrixorg_raid_failure/ & https://www.heise.de/en/news/Matrix-main-server-down-millions-of-users-affected-10630524.html. Thanks all for your patience.

       @wjmaggos us too. Matrix is a protocol, and someone could absolutely compete with Discord using it.

       @strypey @ejabberd ish; other DAG replication protocols like Git scale fine. it’s harder than if was just message passing.

       Important: admins of Conduit-derived homeservers (Conduit, Continuwuity, Grapevine and Tuwunel) should update immediately to address a critical bug in the federation implementation that is being actively exploited: https://github.com/continuwuity/continuwuity/security/advisories/GHSA-22fw-4jq7-g8r8

       @delta @lazarus @daniel where is this "only 25% of matrix servers federate" stat from? it's pretty hard to tell what servers exist that don't federate(!)
