 @joepie91:pixie.town | mainly to avoid having to maintain two separate hierarchies of rooms and them inevitably going out of sync over time | 21:54:19 |
 raitobezarius | So my proposal is to make the automation manual and say that from now on, everytime you create a new room, you must have an entry in the room directory for it | 21:54:31 |
| raitobezarius | Because I believe the metadata quality will be higher | 21:54:40 |

mainly to avoid having to maintain two separate hierarchies of rooms and them inevitably going out of sync over time I think sync issues won't happen though | 21:54:47 |
 @patka_123:matrix.org | I personally would've rather had a list myself. I've found new rooms on multiple occasions because people randomly mentioned them. The Matrix UI is cluncky and I somehow didn't find them myself, although I went throuw the spaces | 21:54:52 |
| raitobezarius | Integrating a new room inside of the space requires going via a human (hexa right now) | 21:55:00 |

| raitobezarius | But I think we have a disagreement over a small procedural point | 21:55:23 |
| raitobezarius | Exporter can automatically create an empty entry and wait for someone to fill it | 21:55:38 |
| raitobezarius | Or synchronize the topic or something | 21:55:45 |
| @joepie91:pixie.town | right, I'm not really sure where the disagreement is because functionally these look like the same thing to me | 21:56:09 |
| @joepie91:pixie.town | I was proposing an auto export mainly because it is a) easy to implement b) easy to maintain | 21:56:24 |
| raitobezarius | So an automated exporter can never do the work of an editor | 21:56:28 |
| raitobezarius | But an editor can do the work of an automated exporter | 21:56:34 |
| @joepie91:pixie.town | it's not necessarily the perfect option but it is certainly better than what we have right now | 21:56:35 |
| raitobezarius | I don't know if this makes my position clearer | 21:56:43 |

I was proposing an auto export mainly because it is a) easy to implement b) easy to maintain Right, tbh, I'm burned out on writing any Matrix code in general | 21:57:08 |
| raitobezarius | I still have the scars of the TWIN bot which is still dysfunctional for non-permissioned users alas | 21:57:22 |
| raitobezarius | But both approaches are complementary | 21:57:47 |
| @joepie91:pixie.town | understandabld | 22:00:01 |
| @joepie91:pixie.town | * understandable | 22:00:03 |
| @joepie91:pixie.town | I mean, if we have a volunteer for making/curating/maintaining a list (patka?) then that's also a good way to get started, I was just originally working under the assumption that there wouldn't be :) | 22:00:39 |
| raitobezarius | yep | 22:01:17 |
| @patka_123:matrix.org | Yeah, tomorrow I'll add all the rooms with their description and then we can catogize them if/when we see fit. I'll add a monthly recurring todo to keep it updated :) | 22:04:02 |
| @joepie91:pixie.town | great :) thanks! | 22:05:15 |

like writing desc, making headings of which room is about what could be added as state events | 04:11:58 |
|  kittenmreeow joined the room. | 15:16:44 |
 mei 🌒& | can #doom-emacs:nixos.org be fixed please? the state events got borked with grahamc's account migration-deletion-thing and it's also splitbrained apparently | 23:46:53 |
| mei 🌒& | i'm mod but i assume there's been some collected wisdom on how to do this properly without bricking the room further? | 23:47:29 |

 admin (Moderation Team) | We did set the state again, please confirm it is fixed. | 00:21:09 |
