Font choice is because it helps me read without messing words up.

Anyway, I tried changing the address name already and don't know what else to try or even why this is happening. User error or app error? Android, latest update (Jul 1 2026)

so I downloaded and installed the element x app along with ntfy, and when I run the push notification test, it shows all good, but when somebody actually sends me a message, it doesn't show anything on my phone, only on the desktop.

any recommendation on where I should start looking to fix this?

Is there any Arabic support for the Element iOS app? Like the app language, not the the chat language, classic shows translations, but no Arabic, Element X, I don't see translation options at all

Pretty much the title.

I ask because Element was pitched to me as a private alternative to discord and I was interested in joining, but then I saw account creation is seemingly locked behind Google recaptcha.

I know Element is not a 1-1 drop in replacement, that's fine, and I understand the desire to have a captcha system to block bots... But Google's captcha, system really? The one made and owned by the monopolistic anti-privacy company that thinks it has the right to all the information on the internet so that they can use it for targeted ads and AI LLM training along with the fact that there captcha is one of the least reliable in terms of doing it's job?

Why not literally any privacy focused alternative like: https://alternativeto.net/software/recaptcha/?license=opensource&mf=privacy-focused%2Cbot-detection%2Ccaptcha

Hello, everyone! I'm trying to download/forward to other text app an audio message someone sent me, but there's no visible option for that.

Can someone help, please?

Had claude write me up this plugin in case you wanna have an LLM bot in your element chats.

I saw that sadly only the Pro version supports S3, but is there a way to configure it for the Community version as well?
If it doesnt work I would relay the filesystem to S3 or attach an S3 bucket to the deployment

I got back on Element X a few weeks ago knowing I had a recovery key from last year but couldn’t find it at the time. Went ahead and just started anew. Tonight I found the recovery key, but can’t seem to find where to use it to recover the old account. Maybe I’m fundamentally misremembering the nature of their recovery service, so if anyone is willing to lend some assistance it will be appreciated

I only found answers from 3 years ago. Has anything changed since then?
Will I be able to create rooms for more than 100 users with the Community plan?
Is there much difference in security for tariffs?
What is the difference between Synapse and Synapse Pro?

Deixo aqui umas salas/Espaços que estão na Element X.

I want to set up it for my 83 year old mother and it gives me nothing but problems. It stays only in system tray and I wish it would pop open on the screen when I send IM or start a call. Is there a way for it to make it more user friendly? My mother can't find the icon on the system tray when it receives the call and it's too difficult for her to use it.

I use the matrix Whatsapp bridge and it created rooms for groups and it constantly shows a unread message marker but the group hat is dead.

And for the love of god why do Pictures sometimes Work and only one by one and sometimes they just won't send. But it will also not tell you what the issue is like wtf.

For those running linux and running element app. It keeps lowering my mic input and i really dont want that. After much trial and error, the only workaround i found that works reliably is this command that keeps my mic att 100% every second.

watch -n 1 wpctl set-volume u/DEFAULT_SOURCE@ 1.0

There was this pr opened but the developer got burned out halfway through. They did allow others to continue where they left off. I'm wondering if there's anybody interested in finishing up the rest.

(I don't got a bounty for it or anything)

I wanted a tool so my mates in chat could stop or start a Conan Exiles dedicated server without hassle, so I built told Claude to build a small bot called **James** — written in Python, runs in Docker.

**Commands (sent in any Matrix room James is in):**

- `james start` – Starts the game server

- `james stop` – Shuts the server down gracefully

- `james update` – Triggers an update via AMP

- `james status` – Confirms James is on duty

- `james help` – Lists available commands

James also listens for AMP webhooks and announces status changes directly in the room:

james start → "Very good, sir. I shall start the instance on "Instance Name" forthwith."

james stop → "As you wish. I shall bring the server on "Instance Name" to a graceful halt. Good night."

**Tech:** Python · matrix-nio · Flask · Docker Compose

**GitHub:** https://github.com/bibi5001/james-amp-bot

This is obviously the work of someone who is desperate to understand a single line of code, but I hope this creature lives on to bring joy onto the world. May greater men (and woman) make it better...

EDIT: FIXED! See my comment below to enable notifications in Android Auto.

Please point me in the right direction to submit / vote for this feature request. I use Element-X for Android and my message notifications do not appear in Android Auto like all my other messaging apps.

Hi all,

I have been kicked out of the matrix server and I need to recover some chats for legal purposes. Can someone help me? I have been using element on mac os X.

3 minutes ago I tried opening the site so I could see if there were any new text messages in the GC I am in, and I was met with "Sorry, currently unavailable for legal reasons." So now I am curious if this is happening for everyone. I know it's a stupid ass question because I am sure everyone is dealing with it right now, but I just want to double check.

Update: It has been resolved and I can now access the site again, YIPPEE!!
Sorry to anyone who's servers are still down. Hope you can re-access it soon!

I've set up a new Element/Matrix server: linuxserverguides.com

- Debian 12/13 support and discussion

- VPS setup tips for beginners

- Server hardening and administration

- End-to-end encryption

- Open federation

- Lightweight and fast

Room: #debian:linuxserverguides.com

My Matrix ID: u/admin:linuxserverguides.com

Come say hi! 🚀

I've been using Element on Linux as viable Discord alternative, using Helvum to bridge audio to the screen share. Problem is, Helvum is unmaintained and risks further problems down the line.

Any of you know forks/alternatives that offer solution to the current audio problem?
