Could you build this?
Partial A Matrix client with spaces and chat is vibe-codeable, but reliable voice, screen sharing, and end-to-end encryption at real scale are hard.
What it would actually take: Build a client on an existing Matrix homeserver stack such as Element's SDK or matrix-js-sdk. The hard parts are the WebRTC voice and screen-sharing infrastructure (usually a LiveKit or Jitsi-style SFU that must scale) and correct E2E encryption key handling, which needs security-focused engineers to audit.
