@falaichte:techsaviours.org | Where do you appeal bans about on the Nix space? | 19:56:13 |
raitobezarius | to moderators in private? | 19:57:44 |
@falaichte:techsaviours.org | In reply to @raitobezarius:matrix.org to moderators in private? Okay, cheers. | 19:59:27 |
raitobezarius | https://wiki.nixos.org/wiki/MatrixRooms time to solve the discoverability problem of matrix rooms? | 21:34:00 |
@patka_123:matrix.org | Maybe we can put a link to this wiki page in a room description? Maybe it will be most visible in the description of the main room? | 21:45:17 |
raitobezarius | and maybe on the nixos.org website | 21:45:53 |
@joepie91:pixie.town | have we considered using some kind of very simple bot to automatically export the structure of the space to a list on the website? | 21:47:08 |
raitobezarius | i think what is nice is to offer the human touch | 21:47:29 |
raitobezarius | like writing desc, making headings of which room is about what | 21:47:41 |
raitobezarius | etc | 21:47:41 |
@patka_123:matrix.org | I like doing manual simple things, so I can be that bot 🤖 | 21:48:08 |
@joepie91:pixie.town | (is that not what the topic is for?) | 21:48:10 |
@joepie91:pixie.town | excellent, a volunteer! | 21:48:20 |
raitobezarius | yes but there's no "global view" | 21:48:22 |
raitobezarius | so imagine you are interested into networking | 21:48:27 |
raitobezarius | you join networking | 21:48:30 |
raitobezarius | but you also want to know about adjacent rooms | 21:48:34 |
raitobezarius | you would need to watch the space all the time | 21:48:42 |
raitobezarius | and i myself missed many rooms like that | 21:48:49 |
@joepie91:pixie.town | raitobezarius: not sure what you mean? | 21:48:56 |
raitobezarius | sorry, i'm quite unclear indeed | 21:49:06 |
raitobezarius | we discussed it in the past, but i would have wanted to have a page listing all rooms and grouping similar rooms together so they're clustered together | 21:49:48 |
raitobezarius | and if a new room spawn close to my area of interests | 21:49:54 |
raitobezarius | i can quickly notice it | 21:49:57 |
raitobezarius | with the current matrix tooling, i constantly miss out on rooms until someone mention its existence to me | 21:50:08 |
@joepie91:pixie.town | okay, but in what way is this structurally different from spaces and subspaces? | 21:50:54 |
raitobezarius | i'd say the main difference is that i can urlwatch a webpage and we control the layout, split things as we want and have multiple views | 21:51:25 |
raitobezarius | and that i'm utterly unable to use the space / subspaces feature of matrix | 21:51:44 |
raitobezarius | and i surmise that many clients / users just ignore them | 21:51:52 |
raitobezarius | also | 21:52:18 |
