Element is now getting closer and closer to be a 100% viable Discord alternative. Now, as a beta feature you can group your rooms and conversations in a public, private or personal, way, which means you can have something similar to Discord channels with various rooms for certain topics.

Even though it is only available on Element right now, it seems it might come to other Matrix clients in the future as well.

    Been messing around with it for a bit, it’s so much better than the Communities thing they had going on

      Yeah, it just works now. The only thing I wish they would do is give an option to hide the rooms you have in a Space on the “All rooms” area.

        Couldn’t find it on the webapp but on android it’s in Labs “Experimental Space - Only show orphans in Home”. Doesn’t work for DMs though.
