Element is launching the world’s first communications platform based on the upcoming Matrix 2.0 release. The result is blazing performance which outperforms the mainstream alternatives - across a decentralised system that enables self-hosting and end-to-end encryption - as well as open standard interoperability to revolutionise real time communication between large organisations.
Built on Matrix 2.0, Element X now rivals the performance of centralised consumer messaging apps, empowering organisations to address the shadow IT issues caused by consumer-grade messaging apps in the workplace.
The new Element communications solution consists:
- Element X, our next-gen app with an array of new features
- Element Call fully integrated into Element X, for native Matrix-encrypted voice and video
- Element Server Suite, our backend hosting solution for powerful admin control and Matrix 2.0 performance

Screensharing would let so many people move from discord
Discord uses their own screen sharing implementation because it performs better than what's available in Electron by default. I don't expect Element to achieve that, considering their focus isn't gaming.
Last time I checked they had it in the web version
Only through Jitsi as I remember, it wasn't very good if that's what they're still using.
Wire supports it. Also more secure than Matrix
How is it more secure than matrix? I can't even self-host it.
Yes, you can. The server code is on github. But I don't know why you would, since all messages are encrypted client-side.
Its more secure because you know that all your users can't send a message unencrypted, either accidentally or intentionally.
there's a graphical indicator if they send something unencrypted, and there's no way to turn an encrypted chat into an unencrypted chat on matrix. Plus they start encrypted by default, I honestly don't even know how to make an unencrypted chat, I don't think there's any good way to other than using a client that doesn't have encryption.
this is not a real problem.
It is a problem. Many orgs have strict rules not to use messaging solutions that support unencrypted messages
This doesn't tick the box, so it blocks adoption
