Fractal 5: Linux Matrix Messaging App Level-Up with GTK 4 and Rust SDK
|
||||
======
|
||||
Matrix messaging app for GNOME gets an upgrade with GTK4, Rust SDK, and
|
||||
more.
|
||||
[Matrix][1], a popular network for secure, decentralized communication, is getting more relevant day-by-day. The world around us is changing at a pace previously unheard of, and the need for a secure communication tool is just one of its by-products, among other things.
|
||||
|
||||
One such tool that helps in leveraging Matrix, is Fractal. It is one of the [best Matrix clients for decentralized messaging][2].
|
||||
|
||||
With a recent announcement, **Fractal 5** is here with a major overhaul 🎉
|
||||
|
||||
So, let's take a brief look at it.
|
||||
|
||||
## 🆕 Fractal 5: What's New?
|
||||
|
||||
![][3]
|
||||
|
||||
Being **a complete rewrite** compared to the previous release, Fractal 5 now makes use of [GTK 4][4], [libadwaita][5], and the [Matrix Rust SDK][6] for providing a modern looking interface that just feels at home.
|
||||
|
||||
Fractal now **scales properly on all kinds of screens** , be it small or large; users of the previous releases should find it familiar without much of a learning curve.
|
||||
|
||||
Moreover, it is now possible to **reply to specific messages** , **react to messages** with emoji, and even **edit/remove messages** while chatting on Fractal.
|
||||
|
||||
![][7]
|
||||
|
||||
You can also **send your current location** to any of your chats, just ensure that your system supports 'Location Services', and is enabled.
|
||||
|
||||
![][8]
|
||||
|
||||
Viewing images and playing audio or video is now more intuitive, you can directly view/play those from the chat window itself.
|
||||
|
||||
![][9]
|
||||
|
||||
And lastly, Fractal now has **support for logging into multiple accounts** , with additional support for [Single-Sign On][10] (SSO). This will make it effortless to handle multiple accounts on the same client instance.
|
||||
|
||||
![][11]
|
||||
|
||||
**For its future releases** , the developers have planned to add some neat features such as room settings, better moderation tools, and notification settings. They also want to improve the accessibility side of things.
|
||||
|
||||
You may go through the [release notes][12] to learn all the technical details.
|
||||
|
||||
I am glad to see that Fractal is being actively developed, and if you ask me, this release brings it more on par with the under development [ElementX][13], a successor to the Element messaging app.
|
||||
|
||||
**Suggested Read** 📖
|
||||
|
||||
![][14]
|
||||
|
||||
I am excited about a time when Matrix is not just a niche thing used by a few, but the norm suggested by many.
|
||||
|
||||
## 📥 Download Fractal 5
|
||||
|
||||
