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

So glad and honestly relieved to see ya back up and running. More options are great.

Discord, anti-libre software, does nothing to defend us from a rug pull: does Discord really think we're stupid enough to fall for its scam.

Questions end with a question mark.

Just joined! Btw anyone know good Matrix channels to join?

[–] mypasswordis1234@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

It depends on what you are interested in!

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.

[–] panja@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Revolt isn't nearly as mature as matrix is

[–] ninchuka@lemmy.one 3 points 1 year ago

You can use matrix for groups easily, it's what I mainly use it for

[–] Izzy@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Matrix has some Lemmy integration already and perhaps more in the future.
