I’m thinking of paying the Lemmygrad Matrix a visit, should I sign up using the genzedong.org Matrix Server? Or should I just sign up on the general Matrix server? (matrix.org), seeing as the Matrix Chatroom on the frontpage links to internationale:matrix.org
Also, how active are either matrices? Does genzedong.org have any chatrooms?
It federates and some chats are encrypted, so it’s up to you which host you’d prefer.

Lemmygrad’s Matrix room has two addresses, the main one is #internationale:genzedong.org and the second one is #internationale:matrix.org. It was first created when a Genzedong instance didn’t exist so that’s why you may see it as such. In my opinion since Genzedong comes more from a Reddit, non libre software user base, Discord space is more active than Matrix, but Lemmygrad’s Matrix room is indeed more active, or at least fairly active, I don’t use any of their Discord spaces so I wouldn’t know, but that’s what other people say. Nevertheless I would invite you to create an account on Genzedong instance and use Matrix, since it is a software that allows for more freedom.
The encryption thing is a bothersome issue that really annoys, I tried to convince the administrators to do the switch but I guess it could affect in some way.

Does a Discord space still exist? Clicking the “Affiliated Discord!” link results to an invalid invite. :\

I don’t really like Discord (especially now that they’ve become another Soulless Corporation), so I would’ve done it anyway. Thank you still for the cordial invitation! The GenZedong instance it is then!

The switch from Matrix to Discord? Discord to Matrix? Or to turn encryption off?
Yeah, maybe the forgot to updste that link or something.
From encrypted to unencrypted.
