Element X. New and improved Matrix client, so E2EE, decentralized, federated, self-hostable, etc.

Pretty sure when they said VoIP they meant SIP/RTP, not just "internet video chat"

to use element I need to provide an email address. Do I also need to provide a valid phone number?

Check out jmp.chat for use with Cheogram (Conversations xmpp fork).

No, you don't. Element is a client for Matrix and Matrix doesn't use phone numbers.

Tried ElementX but ran into issues while getting it working with a selfhosted matrix server. After setting up dendrite (matrix server) and sliding-sync server (asynchronous message history syncing; which it requires) I still wasn't able to get past the initial sync screen. Are you hosting your own matrix server, did you use it with a public server, or have you not tried using it yet?
