Yeah for that you have to look to Germany, which has largely embraced Matrix, and certain states, such as Schleswig-Holstein, have embraced Linux and LibreOffice:

Wasn't France the one that started switching to Matrix and funded a bunch of improvements?

It's great that Germany is doing the same, I just remember Matrix talking about money from France and helping the French government deploy Matrix for government use back in the day. A lot of the E2E encryption improvements were attributed to their collaboration with France at the time

Yes and the French administration has access to a modified version of Matrix called Tchap.

France is such a bizare country... They enforce E2E encryption and at the same time try to break E2E encryption?

[–] Bogasse@lemmy.ml 4 points 3 days ago

I don't think France tried to break E2E yet? Some political groups repeatedly submit law projects through the democratic process, but as long as it doesn't pass I think the best we can say is that France is against.
