Does matrix have a voice/video functionality or is it strictly text chat?
In all of these new-to-me resources, i see a lot of people saying they are self hosting. Do y’all selfhost on like y’all’s main PC or do y’all have a home server stack y’all use?
I’ve been seeing things about matrix more and more and it’s seeming like something interesting. I checked out their website and, like a lot of this stuff, it’s a bit unclear for me.
So you do as you do here and set up an account on an instance and then port everything through it? Does smashing all the different chats into one list have a way to differentiate them from one another? I’m just looking for more about it to help me understand it.
I didn’t know you could type in that list?! It didn’t look like a field that allowed that. Good to know for the future!
I had not noticed that the list of instances was longer than originally shown. Thank you for sharing screen shots. Hopefully if someone else had the same question, that clears it up!
Yeah, it’s exciting to see things differently. Especially since, for the moment, things are a bit smaller here. I’m liking the idea of everything so far. Perhaps the app needs a few things added. Most definitely, I have a lot to learn!
Have not messed around with the app much yet and didn’t know it would show up at all based off of my cursory glances so far. I mentioned in another comment that I was wondering if it could be set so that I only see Beehaw and not lemmy.ml so I could hop between the locations at will. Maybe in a future update in the app!
Update: I poked around the app a bit more. I didn’t notice that in the login screen, the instance menu could scroll. It looked like it perfectly held the fours it originally showed. I was short on time when i originally looked and didn’t try scrolling there because of how nicely it fit. Figured i would update this in case others could use the info.
Checking again, you’re right. I am seeing the odd thing now. Maybe i was looking for a way to see just the beehaw feed and purposefully bounce back and forth as desired.
Quick side question: How did you get to beehaw from the jerboa app? I only see lemmy.ml stuff on it and can’t find a way to add other communities.
It’s the Drop LotR keycap set. I think they have some 60% pre-fab. The one above is a custom.
… I may have built a keyboard for each language…
