Sadly to manage Matrix is more difficult and harder to moderate ( there is no mod bot and developing is a mess )
Comment on Can we please unpin the proprietary off-site/off-network promotion of discord
tja@sh.itjust.works 1 year agoBut this means that the community chat will be in discord. If I want to chat with other members in this community, I need to join discord.
So it would be better if another option would be advertised

I thought github.com/matrix-org/mjolnir was a solution?

But normally you didn’t have a direct community chat either. Discord is easily accessible, usable and scalable for that use at the moment, so whoever wants it can use it. In the meantime, there’s absolutely no force keeping you from suggesting better options.

If volunteers were to setup a Matrix room, would it be possible to add a pinned post with it in a similar way to the Discord one?
As always, thank you for your work!

That would interfere with any official matrix set up by our team should we decide to in the future. I appreciate your proposal don’t get me wrong but then others will ask the same for their own ideas/projects and the announcement community is strictly for official Lemmy World announcements.

I completely understand, and that’s why I was a bit surprised by AvaddonLFC comment just above about “suggesting better options”.
Quite a few people already mentioned Matrix, so I don’t see what else people could do?
