How is it dead?
This came up on my feed just yesterday: https://matrix.org/blog/2024/10/29/matrix-2.0-is-here/
And from what I see, not all these specs are client-side. Dendrite (Is it the implementation in Go? 🤔) might be dead, maybe they have just abandoned it as they don't even mention it in the announcement, lol… But the protocol itself looks pretty much alive to me, they've even redone the video calls so maybe we can have those not in Web-based clients only.
The protocol is alive, but the code isn't developed by Matrix Foundation anymore. Read my post carefully. Also, I had video calls working in nheko (it's in C++/Qt) since forever just fine.

Yeah, true.
> but the code isn't developed by Matrix Foundation anymore
Wasn't it the model for quite some time already? 🤔 I mean they don't do it themselves at this point, but they might hire others to implement certain parts.

Good! I've only used Nheko on my Windows machine — because compared to Windows even Qt doesn't seem that bad 🤭
I've seen some settings related to it, but I wasn't sure it wasn't a just a placeholder and that it works.
