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 pay for nitro, not because I necessarily care about the features but just because it’s neet and convient. Like, I can upload to another playform and share a link, or I can just buy nitro and pay for the convience. I use discord every day so I don’t really mind supporting them.
I really don’t understand where al the “discord is garbage” and “fuck discord” comes from, my guess it’s just federation extremists hating on every company in existence.
Theres valid reasons to not like discord or not being FOSS isn’t one of them personally
I have also been using Discord since the start. I think people have forgotten how painful setting up groups on Skype or other alternative software was.
I might be wrong but I think some people just think all closed software is garbage, doesn’t matter how good or cheap it is.
That’s what I’m thinking, it’s really easy to use, really easy to grow communities, perfect to just set something up with friends. I think anyone that actually says discord is trash is just full of crap
