Is Matrix's encryption "quantum-safe"? (lemmy.world)

There's a growing concern that "bad-actors" are amassing troves of encrypted data, and storing it away for possible future decryption using quantum computers. Many services have put in efforts to make certain that their encryption algorithms are "quantum-safe", so as to protect against such attacks. Has Matrix done the same?

Can you predict the future and what decryption technology will be available then?

If you're that worried and what you say is that sensitive, assume it will be compromised one day.
