* Does Fractal have encryption support? Will it ever?
Fractal does not currently have encryption support, but
does plan to implement it some day. There are details
about the encryption flow for the Matrix team to work out,
and bindings for the encryption library, olm, need to
be created.
there is an initiative for it.
The current effort is to create a monolithic module for Fractal to interact with.
Said module will handle all cryptographic tasks.
The goal is to reduce the amount of work required for implementing end-to-end encryption
by having one thing to interact with, instead of a huge API surface.
Code and further information for this module can be found at [World/metaolm](https://gitlab.gnome.org/World/metaolm).
* Can I run Fractal with the window closed?
