I’m down for more chat rooms, especially the alive and kicking rooms.

Which rooms y’all in, and roughly how busy are they?

    Not really, it’s more like Whatsapp. I don’t know why people keep comparing it to Discord.

        Still a ways off, to be frank. Matrix is first and foremost a room-based chat platform, like Whatsapp, Signal or Telegram. It gives you the option to organize channels into spaces and subspaces, but they still lack the cohesion and first-party-ness of Discord servers.

      In Element (an app that uses Matrix protocol) you can basically organize yourself as in Discord. Rooms/Servers with subchannels that you can invite people to and distribute admin/mod rights.

        How do you do that? I have Element but all the chats I’ve joined are organised as single channels.

          I guess it is up to the person creating the channel. There are “Spaces” and “Rooms”. Spaces are the equivalent of discord “servers”. But rooms can also be created outside of a space, making them similar to a group in Telegram/WhatsApp.
