We know most of you were thrilled about our Discord server, so we decided to make you even happier with our very own space on matrix!
-
There is an announcement room for all the latest and greatest about Lemmy World: https://matrix.to/#/#announcements:lemmy.world
-
A General channel where everyone is welcome to join and talk: https://matrix.to/#/#general:lemmy.world
And lastly, this one is more for admins of other instances but we have opened a “LW Defense HQ” room which we want to use in our ongoing fight against spammers: https://matrix.to/#/#defense:lemmy.world
Come join us!
EDIT: Madlad @ruud@lemmy.world was easily convinced to set up a lemmy.world matrix server. So I edited the links to the new space and rooms. The old ones still work too!
That means you can now also sign up for a Lemmy World matrix account. Instructions in this comment: https://lemmy.world/comment/3443207
Aren’t spaces more or less the building block for “servers”? i.e. can’t you basically have channels by grouping rooms in a shared space?
that’s the alternative approach that matrix took. Probably has to do with technical things I don’t know about. But they a little bit inconvenient and less smoother than what discord has.
It is just a matter of presentation by the client. Hopefully they figure out how to join all rooms in a space at once to make switching “channels” more smooth.
