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
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:
EDIT: the updated links work for me now!

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 liketchncs.de
or whatnot if they didn’t want to use matrix.org. $0.02 https://servers.joinmatrix.org/I think most people should avoid the matrix.org home server for increased decentralization.
