Due to losing control of our Matrix channel, we are officially moving over to Discord for now.

It's a shame, but we can't properly moderate our Matrix, so we can no longer recommend it.

@pixelfed hey, sorry about this :( Your mail on Mar 18th looks like it was sent to abuse@matrix.org, but didn't get a response because your mail address was bouncing (SMTP 550 5.1.1 Recipient address rejected: User unknown in virtual mailbox table from mx01.mta.zknt.org). We can (could have?) pointed the room alias to a new room if you created one with the right permissions. support@matrix.org is the right place for this sort of support request (although we are very overstretched atm).

@matrix Hello, will ThirdRoom continue to be maintained in the future?

@matrix@mastodon.matrix.org avatar

@MomentQYC Hi there! We don't ourselves maintain Third Room, but our understanding is that the team at Element is unable to continue maintaining it for the foreseeable future.

We hope that turns around, as it's a very exciting technology and alternative to proprietary and centralized approaches to the metaverse.

I've been trying to figure out how to report a room in the @matrix for a couple of minutes, and I simply can't find anywhere how to do that.

@CleoMenezesJr @element https://matrix.org/contact/ is the bottom line: abuse@matrix.org is the one true entry point to our ticketing system for dealing with abuse reports.

Using @matrix at scale isn't fun. There are way too many matrix momentโ„ข situations to count.

And now it was discovered that maybe there's a problem where banned users can still read rooms with their banned accounts?

Seriously, has anyone using ever been involved with moderation?

@samueldr we've routed this to security@matrix.org to investigate.

@oceane @kde @kde You can learn some more about the relationship between the two in this blog post from our Managing Director: https://matrix.org/blog/2023/10/26/hello-world/

New Vector/Element does have outsized influence as the company founded by folks who created Matrix, and as the #1 contributor to upstream, but the Foundation's job is to be vendor neutral and a fiercely independent steward as one would hope to see with any FOSS foundation.

We are happy to answer any questions you may have.

We are thrilled to welcome @gnome and @kde who, like @EclipseFdn, have joined us as Associate Members ๐Ÿš€

Associate Members are FOSS foundations, nonprofits, and other communities that share our values, such as: software freedom, open source, open standards, privacy, and decentralization.

Like our other members, we have allocated several seats on our Governing Board for Associate Members, and they get to be part of how Matrix is governed.

mttaggart, to Matrix

So I'm just a few days into running my #Matrix server, and I have to say that doing any kind of public server that requires moderation seems like a very half-baked proposition right now.

Using any kind of bot for moderationโ€”the only real option because bans do not propagate to all rooms in a "space,"โ€”requires an encryption hall pass proxy that hasn't seen a commit in almost a year, despite several bugs. That's to say nothing of the awful state of documentation.

I'm soldiering on, but this is some classic open source nonsense. "Leave the easy proprietary platforms and just host your own thing! Here's no help at all, also this and that don't work. RTFM! Except the TFM isn't finished."

matrix,
@matrix@mastodon.matrix.org avatar

@mttaggart We're glad you're giving it a try!

Yes, the state of trust & safety for homeserver admins is lacking. This is something the Foundation is prioritizing this year, both by investing in FOSS tooling, proposing supportive spec change, and convening stakeholders who work on this from across the ecosystem.

We'll be sharing more about this specifically on our blog in the next few weeks.

Please continue to be vocal about your experience, it helps us target our efforts!

Open source infrastructure must be a publicly funded service, and funders need to support maintenance โ€“ not just new feature development ๐Ÿ“ฃ

This is on our minds this week in the wake of the #xz news, and as we continue to seek funding to support #Matrix.
