Mages
by MLM Games
Encrypted chat client for Matrix
About
Mages is an experimental Matrix chat client built with Compose Multiplatform and a Rust core powered by matrix-rust-sdk. The flatpak version has limitations with screen sharing and video cam access, which work better on manual downloads / aur builds.
Features include:
- Room list with previews and unread counts
- Room and thread timelines (text, media, polls)
- End-to-end encryption via matrix-sdk
- Spaces browser
- Presence and privacy settings
Note: This is experimental software. Things may break, but encryption is handled by the battle-tested matrix-rust-sdk.
Permissions
2 permissions weaken the sandbox. Flatsonar asks before installing.
- X11 display: X11 lets apps read input and windows of other apps
--socket=x11 - your keyring / saved passwords
--talk-name=org.freedesktop.secrets - inter-process communication (needed for X11)
--share=ipc - network
--share=network - audio
--socket=pulseaudio - GPU acceleration
--device=dri - access to your download folder
--filesystem=xdg-download - notifications
--talk-name=org.freedesktop.Notifications
