Hunter via tde-users scripsit:
I think that the mailing list may not be the best way to reach users, although its certainly more active than the IRC channel. As an alternative, I have a TDE Matrix room if anyone is interested and it needs to grow: #trinity-desktop:halogen.city
I might sound ignorant, but what's a "Matrix room"?
I assume it's an on-line venue accessible through the matrix messaging network (see matrix.org ).
Hey Hunter,
I wandered around matrix.org, and it’s pretty confusing as to what it actually does. Would you mind providing some links that give a good high level summary of what this Matrix thing is? What it provides (is it some variant of forum software?)? What a person would need to do to be able to use it?
And how you envision it being able to replace the TDE mailing lists? (<= I’m assuming that’s what you’re meaning.)
Case in point, this https://matrix.org/docs/guides/introduction might be good for a hardcore geek, but to the average Joe Linux user it’s mostly gobbledygook.
Thanks, Michael
