I’ve been trying to use Matrix to replace sites like Discord or Slack. But it seems that if a user creates an invitation-only room in a server, then invited users who are registered on other servers get errors when trying to join. Not very useful error messages either: “Failed to join room”. (In my case, I tried creating accounts and rooms at nitro.chat and then at converser.eu, but friends registered at matrix.org don’t manage to join).
Quite a let-down. Anyone who’s facing the same problem and has maybe managed to solve it?
Anyone who says Matrix is a suitable replacement for Discord is delusional.
But you can self-host Revolt chat, which is very similar.
Matrix 2.0 is pretty close.
2.0 doesn’t even support spaces…
Yeah it does. The main app didn’t yet last I checked but there were other apps that did.
Such as?
schildichat
Schildichat doesn’t support 2.0 or SlidingSync.
