 lassulus | ah nvm, weirdly my client connected to matrix.nixos.dev which through an error. chat.nixos.dev works as intended | 19:41:59 |

|  @chrisaw:matrix.org joined the room. | 15:13:11 |
| @chrisaw:matrix.org changed their display name from chrisaw to pisslips. | 15:46:06 |
| @chrisaw:matrix.org changed their display name from pisslips to chrisawcom. | 15:46:16 |
| @chrisaw:matrix.org | I am ridiculously confused about how I actually join the chat.nixos.dev server - any time I try to add it - it says I'm not authorized to do so. Just trying to get to the devos channel. :P | 15:47:40 |
 Winter (she/her) | Did you put in matrix.nixos.dev as the homeserver URL? | 15:51:27 |
| Winter (she/her) | (chat.nixos.dev is only for the Element web client) | 15:51:49 |
| @chrisaw:matrix.org | Oh sorry - I should have mentioned - I am using Element web app :) | 15:52:05 |
| Winter (she/her) | Oh, I misread your question. | 15:52:20 |
| @chrisaw:matrix.org | I saw that I have to be in the GitHub org group which I am but I'm not 100% sure how the server could be verifying that because I don't use GitHub Auth to login to element web. Am I missing something? | 15:52:45 |
| @chrisaw:matrix.org changed their display name from chrisawcom to chrisaw. | 15:53:05 |
| Winter (she/her) | There should be a button to login with GitHub | 15:53:55 |
| @chrisaw:matrix.org | Ah so I absolutely have to sign up and in via GitHub? Doh! >.< That's a pain - will lose my username. :/ | 15:54:36 |
 andi- | thats the whole point (not loosing the username but not having to maintain a new authorative user namespace and passwords) | 15:55:21 |
| andi- | also it restricts it to those active in our community | 15:55:27 |
| andi- | without me having to vet anyone individually. | 15:55:39 |
| andi- | If you misbehave in the community you are banned frmo github -> banned from this matrix server. | 15:55:59 |
| @chrisaw:matrix.org | Oh it makes sense - I do understand. Just wish I had known that before. :D My misunderstanding of how matrix works is all. :) | 15:56:22 |
| @chrisaw:matrix.org | Hopefully I'll be back shortly! :) | 15:56:50 |
| @chrisaw:matrix.org changed their display name from chrisaw to chrisawcom. | 15:57:05 |
| andi- | yeah | 15:57:13 |
| @chrisaw:matrix.org left the room. | 15:57:55 |
|  cawilliamson joined the room. | 16:14:01 |
| cawilliamson changed their display name from Christopher A. Williamson to chrisaw. | 16:14:15 |
| cawilliamson | Wooo! I'm in! :D | 16:14:29 |
| cawilliamson | One more dumb question! How do I actually find and join rooms? The "public rooms" list only shows this one. | 16:15:31 |
| Winter (she/her) | You need to look in the NixOS space: | 16:18:41 |
| Winter (she/her) | https://matrix.to/#/#community:nixos.org | 16:18:59 |
| cawilliamson | Oh, added the NixOS space so that's all good. Thanks Winter and andi- 👍️
One thing I can't find though is this: https://logs.nixos.dev/room/!UUqahLbShAYkkrXmKs:matrix.org/servers
| 16:19:05 |
| Winter (she/her) | Yeah I couldn’t find it either when I was looking for you :/ | 16:19:20 |
