Close this stream, and make Matrix the official chat for neuron?

well I for one have had issues with matrix over the years, specifically with it being buggy, slow, and there not being any discussion groups on there that aren;'t actually significantly more populated elsewhere

Joel McCracken

but i think matrix is really cool and i want it to succeed so :shrug:

Joel McCracken

I'll try it again but idk I could never make using it stick

Sridhar Ratnakumar

It works well on Chromium for me.

The only issue I've had with Matrix (I use Element) is that I could never get verification to work, but that doesn't make it nonfunctional.

The main reason I like Matrix is that it bridges to IRC, so I can chat on freenode channels like #nixos or #haskell or #reflex-frp from the same Matrix app: image.png

i wish i could use it =\

Joel McCracken

Ill try to figure something out again

Sridhar Ratnakumar

The IRC bridge has been working quite reliably; so that alone tells me that Matrix has a good future.

My reason to think they're here to stay is that several governments entities have adopted it
