Any pronouns. 33.

Professional developer and amateur gardener located near Atlanta, GA in the USA.

I'm using a new phone keyboard, please forgive typos.

  • I may not have been clear, I just meant that "Discord servers" are not "servers" in the way the word is actually used (meaning a computer) and that Matrix instances actually are real "servers". But yeah, spaces are like Discord servers.

  • What do you use to communicate with your git repositories?

  • I use git in the terminal. On Windows I used git for Windows. I even used that MSYS CLI it provided as my daily driver terminal.

  • This is bullshit. I'm sorry. I've tried signing up on like three servers with Element Classic and Element X and all of them fail. Maybe I've just gotten incredibly unlucky with the instances I've picked, but it's been a much tougher time than joining Lemmy was.

    I have an old matrix.org account I can use, but it's asking me to get something from a currently logged in session, which I don't have any. I saved all the files and phrases it asked me to when I joined originally, but it isn't enough. There's a possibility I missed one, but the fact that I do have a file and phrase saved in my password manager is evidence I was saving what it asked me to.

    If worst comes to worst I can just use matrix.org, but I know that Matrix's "federated but de facto centralized" problem is much worse than Lemmy's (lemmy.world is big but not a majority, but I think a majority of people use matrix.org) and I'm trying to help fix that.

    It's just frustrating. I want Matrix to be the Discord replacement but it's a pain in the ass currently. And Discord is so many things to do many people. It's voice for some, streaming for some, and for a lot it's the fact that it's DMs, rooms, servers, voice, and streaming all in one and with a very large user base. Matrix, to my knowledge, is only rooms, servers (or more properly spaces in Matrix, since they have real servers), and DMs. Back when I used it more frequently it wasn't super active. Especially for really niche activities. And don't even get me started on the state of NSFW matrix, I went down that rabbit hole and one of the top results was MAP stuff (pedophiles). There's also just a huge amount of furry stuff, which isn't inherently a problem, but when it seems like there's dozens of NSFW furry rooms and a top result on search is talking about which servers and rooms are sympathetic to pedophiles and the folks most likely to be leaving Discord are the ones who were doing NSFW things because that's what's actually age restricted I can't really evangelize Matrix as a good replacement.

    This sort of turned into more of a rant than I intended. It's just frustrating.

    (Edit: Also, to be clear, I'm not saying it's Matrix's fault pedophile apologists use it or that it's a top result, I'm just expressing frustration with the situation.)

  • The members of db0 who don't want to see and hear Zionists indeed do have the power to change their instance and did, so I don't get what you mean by saying they don't have the power to change the world so it's petty.

  • Nobody removed your choice to change servers

    Further evidenced by the fact they're posting from their non-db0 account after saying they voted on the topic with their db0 account.

  • Whether or not you agree with db0's decision, framing it as a mere "petty war" is disingenuous.
