Redacted
Hi, nice to see people engaged here. Matrix is a really cool protocol, I even run my own matrix server. But do you mind if I ask, what is the purpose of this room? I mean the midnight pub is a slow place, and I love it this way, also it favors longer forms of text, maybe even more carefully crafted text sometimes. A matrix room might be too fast and demanding for me, I might however pop my head around there sometime.
Cheers, and have a good time!
The point of this room is for people to chat with others who also appreciate the Pub. Matrix is a much different type of thing than the Pub. While I enjoy this format I also wanted some way to chat with fellow denizens of the Pub.
I'm so glad to see this! Thank you ~tskaalgard and all for creating this. I don't know about matrix yet, but will learn about it and pop over. Cheers!
Oh wow. I'm so behind the Matrix times! Need to find me some time to saunter down that direction.
It's just we're so danged busy these days that Midnight Pub fly-by's are about all the online I've time for, e.g. a tree needs to come down, a roof needs replacing, a riding mower (used, preferably) needs acquiring, as does a baby grand from a dear friend moving to Florida (who will thus enjoy reuniting upon future visits), stuff from the previous house requiring movers (but my oversight, of course... not to mention a bit of disassembly (e.g. the treadmill)).
Ugh... sorry for the boring overly muchness of information!
But I must add I'll be looking forward to leveraging
this Matrix clientwhen I finally do have the time.
I absolutely get that time balance conundrum. I honestly didn't know what matrix was other than hearing the occasional reference to it. But reading the technical description of it, it does look impressively designed.
Nice!
