Luon Matrix is a Matrix home server that can be used by any Luon user without

|

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
On GNOME, there is the *Fractal* Matrix client. It does not support all the
|
|
|
|
|
features of Matrix just yet, but has a clean interface that fits well into the
|
|
|
|
|
desktop. You can install it via Flatpak using
|
|
|
|
|
[Flathub](https://flathub.org/apps/details/org.gnome.Fractal).
