/c/WomensStuff has a new Matrix space!

5 months ago by foxglove (she/her) to c/womensstuff

Matrix, the open protocol for secure decentralised communications

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

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

Women only trans inclusive This is an inclusive community for all things women. Whether you're here for make up tips, feminism or just friendly chit chat, we've got you covered.

Rules…

  1. Women only… trans women are women, and transphobic or gender critical talk isn’t allowed. Anyone under the trans umbrella (e.g. non-binary, bigender, agender) is free to decide whether a women's community is a good fit for them.
  2. Don’t be a dick. No personal attacks, no aggression, play nice.
  3. Don’t hate on groups, hatefilled talk about groups is not allowed. Ever.
  4. No governmental politics, so no talk of Trump actions etc. We recommend Feminism@beehaw.org for that, but here is an escape from it.
  5. New accounts or users with few comments may have their posts removed to prevent spam and bad-faith participation.
