A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Okay, help an old-timer out.

Lemmy :: Reddit

Mastodon :: Twitter (I refuse to call it "X")

Matrix :: ???

Is it like discord? The olden days of AIM/ICQ/IRC?

Featureset-wise it falls somewhere between IRC and Discord.

Does there tend to be logical groups for Matrix channels/servers? (Meaning you don't really just join Matrix, you go to a Matrix instance for Jerjoba support, or other common interest like Hockey?)

Matrix has a concept of “spaces” for grouping people and rooms into a unit.
