Quadrix for Linux
Minimal, simple, multi-platform chat client for the Matrix protocol
Overview
Quadrix is a simple and minimal chat client designed to work on multiple platforms.
It uses the Matrix protocol to connect users, supporting Windows, MacOS, Linux (amd64, arm64, armhf), Android, and iOS devices.
This makes it a flexible option for users who want the same chat experience across different devices.
One of the main benefits of Quadrix is that it is completely free to use, with no ads and no data collection.
It is also open source, meaning anyone can view and contribute to its code through GitHub.
Quadrix supports video calls using Element Call integration, which adds extra communication options beyond text messaging.
However, Quadrix does not offer End-to-End Encryption, so all messages are not fully protected from outside access.
Because of this, it works best when used with a private Matrix homeserver.
Setting up your own homeserver improves privacy and control but might require some technical knowledge.
You can learn how to install a Matrix homeserver like Synapse on the official Matrix.org site.
The app features a unique top-down messaging feed and covers basic chat functions but has fewer features compared to other Matrix clients.
If you want a straightforward, multi-platform Matrix chat client without ads or data tracking, Quadrix is a good choice for Linux users and others across popular desktop and mobile platforms.
