For those who Discord is not their cup of tea 😉
Boy, that is not an intuitive user experience. It started emailing chat room logs for some insane reason.
I’m all for fediverse options, but that is not a good onboarding experience.
Agreed. I’m not sure if it was the client or the server, but signing up took a solid 5-6 tries with several rounds of e-mail validation where it would just stop in the flow no matter how many times I pressed next. Eventually I made it through, and I have to say the actual chatting experience is pretty nice. It’s not as overwhelming or in your face as Discord for sure.
I got anxiety when it asked me to choose an app.
I recommend Element if you can’t decide.
Unlike choosing a server on kbin/lemmy/fediverse choosing an app is something you can change at any time or even use multiple (I imagine you’d only do this to test them out)
I’ve joined the matrix room but I can’t see any messages - and I get the message “you do not have permission to post to this room”. Am I doing something wrong?
I think I’ve fixed it. There seem to be two Artemis rooms and the one linked to in the post is the wrong one.
