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!

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 @[email protected] 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

    Did you know you can bridge matrix to discord? So your discord users can talk to your matrix users?

      Yeah I’m aware but we haven’t given it a try yet. Does it work well and is it for room/channel or server/space?

        it’s for channel - room communication. It works well, unless you have a spam problem on matrix because then they bypass the anti-spam protections of discord. but if you don’t have a spam problem, it’s great

          I tried this one but it doesn’t do emoji reactions and such. Is that because of the bridge software or is it technically not possible?

            I think the problem was that they use a bot at the discord side, which can only react a specific emoji once.

            I’m not 100% sure, I would ask in the support room for the bridge which should be on that page

      Yes but no. Yes, technically possible. No, I don’t think it’s what you’re looking for - you’d want to create your own bot for your own account (each user needs its own bot), and it’s technically against Discord TOS to use, so use at your own risk.

        No each user doesn’t need their own bot you just add one bot on the matrix side and one in the discord side
