federated web via the tools they currently use.
We believe bridging is a good way to provide community tools like chat rooms, ensuring people can participate using the the tools they have at their disposal. For anyone looking for a chat tool, we do recommend using the #
FOSS and #
decentralized options out there, for example Matrix, #
IRC or #
XMPP - to name a few. We hope to convert some of the people on the Telegram side of the chat room to do so in the future 😀
Our chat room currently has a few hundred people from all around the federated web. Looking forward to seeing you there too!
