SchildiChat Next
- New rewritten formatted message rendering to improve display of inline images, collapsible messages, spoilers and more
- Hide spoiler content in room previews and notifications
- Add setting to hide deleted messages
- Add setting for two letter initials fallback avatars
Similarly to Element X, this SchildiChat Android rewrite should still be considered beta, as it lacks some functionality which one might expect from a fully-featured chat app, compared to the old SchildiChat implementation.
The matrix protocol is a decentralized approach to modern messaging, allowing you to select a server provider of your choice (or even self-host your own server), enabling you to communicate with end-to-end encryption, shared message history across multiple devices, and more.
SchildiChat is open source: https://github.com/SchildiChat/schildichat-android-next
