/c/WomensStuff has a new Matrix space!

https://matrix.org/

Send me a DM with your Matrix username requesting an invite and I'll invite you!

(For those who don't know what Matrix is, it's like AOL Instant Messenger or other similar chat apps.)

I feel like explaining matrix as fediverse discord is more understandable :)

that's so true - I'm just old and it reminds me of IRC, which reminds me most of AIM - I feel like Discord is too associated with voice chats and video games and that would be misleading, I think

but fair enough, I do feel like most of the discord servers I am should really just be converted to Matrix spaces

Hrmm, okay, maybe this is the push I need to finally learn Matrix. I'll check it out!

I recommend the Sable client for those looking for what to use for matrix!

I have no idea what that is, it once I boot up my PC after work, I’ll probably join.

I saw that there are servers and it’s like the fediverse. Is there a specific server that y’all joined? Or does that matter much since it all connects? I haven’t had a chance to look at available servers yet.

Yes, the Matrix space is hosted on a particular server, but it all connects so a user from one server is able to participate in a space hosted on another server.

Just shoot me your Matrix username if you'd like an invite!

Actually Matrix rooms aren't hosted on specific servers at all! That's why room and user ids are :example.com instead of @example.com.

Matrix federation works differently from Fediverse federation :3

are you still giving out invites? I DM'd a couple days ago

u9000@lemmy.blahaj.zone · 1 pts · 107d

Just following up -- could I please get an invite? I sent a DM a couple weeks ago but didn't hear back

Been meaning to give matrix a try. Any recommendations for iOS clients?
