hehe this post took us quite a bit to make >v<
This is cool. Thank you!
Woof :D
Anyone feel up to explaining what matrix is and is for? I've seen the name in passing but don't have any clue about it
Think of it like discord, but federated.
discord but good and with e2ee
last time i checked, matrix didn't have any screensharing features. Is it still true?
Element does, I think matrix as a protocol also does (with the VoIP stuff) but at the very least element does.
Depends on what client you're using
Interesting to see it as a alternative to discord, i know matrix only as an encrypted messenger.
Wasnt aware of that meme template, now gotta find a way to use it for my friend :)
I'm in, but I can't rule :(
which home server do yall use? I am trying to get into matrix but have a terrible time choosing
catgirl.cloud
thank you!
When I made my account I joined the main instance but if I had to choose now I'd probably prefer tchncs.de because they offer Telegram, WhatsApp & Signal Bridges for free (but I don't really know much about other instances tbh)
their privacy policy is a lil bit icky in my opinion what did you think?
Tbh, since I didn't join myself I did not study their privacy policy but it seems I should do.
(After reading)
You mean the Captcha or the data they collect and which they claim will be deleted after 7 days? (And 1 year for messages)
This server is storing your IP adress and the last time you have been seen for seven days.
Messages live one year on this server and will then be deleted.
yea I mean these
I'm kinda conflicted with the second part since I sometimes love to go through old messages. On the other hand, from a privacy view it would be nice, if they weren't stored that long. Please correct me if I am wrong or misunderstanding something but the owners cannot read the messages as long as they've been sent encrypted (except if they had the decryption key).
Idk if storing my last time of activity is that big of a thing but it would be cooler if they didn't store it.
I share your point on the IP being stored, this needn't be.
guess I will pass. bridges are nice but I just don't trust these people
Understandable, you'll find your instance and if not, there's always the possibility of self hosting ^^
After all, being able to choose your instance & client to your liking is what makes matrix (and decentralisation as a whole) such a cool thing :3
yep.I wrnt with catgirl.cloud because I trust gay people on the internet 👍
You nailed the expressions so well took me a second to realize those weren't the actual soyjaks
Discord bridge would be a No from me tho, I wanna know beforehand if that ever happens
Just gonna comment here so I remember to join once I figure out what matrix client to use
Seconded! Hopefully I remember when I'm able to and up to it 😅
element, fluffychat and beeper are all good options
beeper seems interesting but getting in is gonna take a while lol.
i can dm u an invite code, so you can get in immediatly
Yes
The secret is all apartment #196es are unofficial
What matrix homeservers would people recommend?
I personally don't really like Matrix, I only joined it out of necessity and the whole keys things is uncomfortable and unintuitive.
none of our rooms are encrypted
oh that's good, maybe I'll give it a shot then. Not sure if I can join though since my app is malfunctioning and the key export isn't working (keys are needed for the blahaj mod chats I'm in since I mod egg_irl and a few other coms here)
Original image source ?
Yeah right, is it them? It's hilarious, I love that meme
No i was talking about the 2 persons
Is my link not going to the original image source of the 2 people?
You can look up "2 goth girls pointing meme" if you are asking for a blank meme template.
