well, not in the room that's been tombstoned, because there's no input box :facepal; oh right lol, then you'd need to send it directly through the API, I can help with that later | 06:41:21 |
 emily | oh, bottom-left cog | 06:41:22 |
| emily | so /devtools → switch it on → go to room → bottom-left cog | 06:41:30 |
| emily | so easy! | 06:41:41 |
 uep | yeah, looks like they moved the "developer mode" toggle into this panel | 06:42:15 |

can you have secret conversations nobody using normal clients can see or do homeservers filter them out? yes, sending new/custom event types is an explicit goal for Matrix. Element can be configure to always show (unknown) events in the timeline stil though | 06:42:17 |
| emily | right. I think I used to have that turned on | 06:42:29 |
| emily | but it seems like an abuse vector. you can smuggle illegal content into rooms that the mods probably won't see? | 06:42:42 |

but it seems like an abuse vector. you can smuggle illegal content into rooms that the mods probably won't see? not sure how much you'd gain by doing that instead of just creating a new room | 06:43:48 |
| emily | fair | 06:43:56 |
| emily | it worked!! thank you uep | 06:44:11 |
| emily | wanna do the same to the old offtopic too? | 06:44:14 |
| uep | resent tombstone | 06:44:18 |
| emily | that gets a fair bit of traffic as well | 06:44:20 |
| uep | got a link / room id handy? | 06:44:54 |
| emily | one sec | 06:45:46 |
| emily | lol | 06:46:13 |
| emily | guess what link Element gave me? | 06:46:18 |

| emily | activity seems to have died down though, but for a while we basically had two offtopics | 06:46:48 |
| emily | search continuity is nice though | 06:47:11 |
