Any Canadian based Matrix servers? Or servers associated with lemmy.ca?

Was just interested in joining Matrix and since my lemmy account was on a Canadian server was wondering if my Matrix account could be too.

https://joinmatrix.org/servers/ lists 3 instances of Canada, but https://kitsunes.chat/ seems to be the only one.

Personally I'm on the main matrix.org server, with a backup on Mozilla's (https://chat.mozilla.org/#/welcome)

Hmmm just the url of kitsunes.chat doesn't really appeal to me I'm leaning toward matrix.org but I'll spend a little more time and see I suppose

Shame that matrix.ca is already registered even though it points to nothing right now. I was thinking of volunteering to cover that cost (depending on renewal fee) if someone was willing to help out with spinning up a matrix server.

I've contacted them to see if they would be willing to transfer it to us. Figured I'd have better luck as a Lemmy admin then just someone random. The domain name is under $20 a year so it's a non issue.

Amazing!! Hopefully they're open to it, it would be great to have both lemmy.ca and matrix.ca available.

I stumbled on this thread from Qwant searching for Canadian matrix instances.

Have you had any luck since this original posting?

Yeah, that's unfortunate that it's taken but unused

I wondered that too and eventually registered on the main Matrix server. Oh well :)

I kind of down want to do that. But it seems harder to find a Matrix server than a Lemmy/Mastodon instance

Let's see what the current owner of matrix.ca says.

Would be awesome if it works out

I went looking for this as well, I almost just scrolled past this because it looked like a Reddit thread, glad to find out it is not we are making the change!
