Does it work well? Which one to choose? The official Matrix site shows 3 that seem maintained:

Does anyone have some insight? I don’t want to try all of them.

Edit: I don’t need anything super fancy like double puppeting. I just want the data from the several Discord communities I joined available through my Matrix server. And it’s just me using it. But it should bridge the rooms properly and include the popular media formats, reactions etc.

    Thanks. Why do you say appservice is old? Because of the used technology? Or because their last commit is from 9 months ago?

    I don’t really need double puppeting. I’m just interested in funnelling out data from discord and it’s just me and my account. I should clarify that in my post…

    Thanks for the suggestions. I’m gonna take a closer look at the features of both and probably choose mautrix, since I already run their WhatsApp bridge. Maybe someone else chimes in and can contribute their experience with the out-of-your-element bridge.

      Yes. Nine months is long enough for stuff to potentially be broken due to changes in matrix or discord.

      Even if you don’t care about double puppeting, I was referring to the fact that out of your element doesn’t do puppeting. At all.

      As in no DMs or discord account log in. All it does is mirror chat rooms onto matrix, allowing matrix users to join them. It does not link to your existing discord account in any way.
