We set up a bridge between the Lemmy.world General Matrix room and the Public-1 channel on the Lemmy World discord server yesterday. It’s not perfect as emoji reactions aren’t visible and some minor things like how it handles edited messages but other than that it seems to be working well.

Now people on both chat clients can interact with eachother!

    It has the features (not sure about that), but it has not the users…

    I agree with you but it’s just not how it works. Or else nobody would be using mac os or google products.

    Also currently, almost nobody want/can/care about selfhosting.

      There are definitely pros/cons. I’m not a FOSS monster. I would just expect a platform whose reason for existence is big corps to be more devoted in this regard.

        How are we not devoted? We are devoted to our users, not to the FOSS only mantra. I see you run your own instance, I suggest you run that one the way you want it and we’ll do our thing here.

          You’re right, manage it however you want.
