    What does it take to get voice/video chat working on Matrix? I see Element has their own server stack, but I can’t tell how open it is, and that’s kinda the big thing that’s keeping me away from trying to go harder on Matrix.

      MatrixRTC is part of the Matrix protocol these days, so if the client is compliant, it should work on any server setup for it. I use synapse and livekit, and it works great. Its all just one docker compose stack

      I was using element mostly, but recently switched to Sable. There are a few more that also support voice and video I believe

        Isn’t the 1-1 and group call stuff a different tech stack or something? I tried one of the clients and calls worked, but group calls didn’t.

        May have improved now.
