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
Why Matrix (which from my experience is closer to a texting app) instead of Revolt? I haven’t used it personally, but Revolt looks a lot closer to Discord in terms of features and the usage experience.
Revolt isn’t federated which to me makes it not even an option.
Revolt isn’t nearly as mature as matrix is
You can use matrix for groups easily, it’s what I mainly use it for
Matrix has some Lemmy integration already and perhaps more in the future.
How does it have lemmy integration?
I believe you can send DMs over the Matrix protocol. I’ve never looked into it.
Check out cinny.in it’s a discord styled client for matrix
