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!

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

    I’ve not had any luck joining any of these rooms. I click the link, continue with Element (the web app), I can see that I’m logged in and can access a room I’ve already joined (for moderating another community), but for these rooms, I’m just getting:

    #lwgeneral:h-y-p-e-r.space is not accessible at this time.
    Try again later, or ask a room or space admin to check if you have access.
    M_UNKNOWN was returned while trying to access the room or space.
    If you think you’re seeing this message in error, please submit a bug report.

    EDIT: the updated links work for me now!

      Glad it’s not just me. I’m trying to find this in FluffyChat and it comes up blank.

        I think it has something to do with the actual h-y-p-e-r.space server – attempting to just join a public room, “add server” results in the Element webUI red-error messaging “cannot get room list from server” and “cannot connect to server”. This matrix server doesn’t seem to show up on lists of popular, well known matrix instance so I think it’s maybe settings on their end. Admins should maybe have considered a “longstanding” server like tchncs.de or whatnot if they didn’t want to use matrix.org. $0.02 https://servers.joinmatrix.org/
