Hello!

I was thinking of setting up a telegram or Matrix group of fediverse loving sysadmins / devs who are also furries.

The idea is that we can support each other with knoweldge, share projects, bots or in general talk tech in regards to fediverse and instance administration.

I don’t do neither systems administration nor development professionally and often I’d want to have a place where I could ask for advice or simply discuss latest developments.

Thank you <3

    I was thinking of a semi-private group actually. Public access, but nothing massive. The idea is that we could also make friends in there as we hang out and discuss fedi related topics.

      Nothing speaks against just trying. If too little people join the chat can be deleted at any time again.

      Since you are aiming for tech people, a matrix group would make sense. Also it is well integrated with lemmy. When you add your matrix address in the profile it enables the “secure message” button.
      One downside with Matrix seems to be, that you cannot create an invite link, you either have it public (and then it is visible for all people on the matrix instance) or private (invite via username). I would opt for a DM for invite method. Similar how registering to this instance works. We could announce that in this community.

      Feel free to DM me, if you want to discus that further!
