How is matrix less secure? If you don’t mind me asking.
It's harder to maintain security due to more complexity of federated systems and Matrix does not have as much global security community looking at it as Signal has.
I guess that’s a fair assessment. A counter argument on that statement could be safer due to the smaller user base since it is not as on the radar. Or that the various implementations could be more secure since there are multiple choices in server deployments in a few different languages even. That being said synapse is definitely the most dominant by a wide margin.
I point you to this thread, and this thread for explanatioins from those who are more knowledgeable on the topic than I.
