(I remember that room having an icon before. did it get removed or has there been a split-brain?) I see the icon | 20:39:20 |
 Sandro | no icon for me | 21:39:20 |
 hexa | always split brain | 21:51:05 |
| Sandro | How is that happening so often for NixOS rooms? | 21:52:25 |

How is that happening so often for NixOS rooms? Because Matrix sucks lol | 21:55:31 |
 emily | the state of the rooms was also subject to manual database editing | 21:56:30 |
| emily | which doesn't help Matrix's already flaky state resolution | 21:56:42 |

 woobilicious | Does matrix not have a way to assign roles or permissions like discord does? It seems kinda bad to only have the main channel locked out, and not the others, ideally you'd want a single channel users can speak in and then some way to assign roles to join others. Some discord servers I've been in just uses emoji reactions to assign channel invites. | 02:42:29 |
|  loudgolem joined the room. | 03:16:50 |
 K900 | Not space wide, no | 04:41:48 |
| woobilicious | not sure if channels have them, but I guess a bot could manage them if they exist with enough power. | 04:43:00 |
| loudgolem | does this have some solution?
K900? maybe
| 05:16:41 |
| K900 | What is "this", exactly? | 05:17:39 |
| loudgolem | I can't join that channel | 05:17:52 |
| loudgolem | neither can those two users above | 05:18:03 |
| loudgolem | MatrixError: [403] You are not invited to this room. (https://matrix-client.matrix.org/_matrix/client/v3/join/%23users%3Anixos.org) | 05:18:18 |
| K900 | The room is currently configured to require an invite from an existing user to join, or a "knock" (i.e. a join request) | 05:19:55 |
| K900 | I have sent you an invite | 05:20:23 |
| loudgolem | thanks, previously it wasn't the case. is this to prevent spam or something? | 05:20:48 |
| loudgolem | * thanks, previously it wasn't the case. is this to prevent spam or something like that? | 05:20:54 |
|  @bryan:snowboardtechie.com joined the room. | 05:22:17 |
| K900 | Yes, there has been a semi-coordinated spam attack | 05:22:28 |

Some discord servers I've been in just uses emoji reactions to assign channel invites. The closest we have today is restricted and getting a invite to the approving room | 06:02:07 |
| Cat | Also the discord style join gates would require further spec work to be realistically implemented but well no real enthusiasm for doing that work has been shown in the years the MSCs have been around | 06:04:12 |
| K900 | Technically you can bot this kind of | 06:04:55 |
| K900 | Just have the default PL for a room at 0 | 06:05:04 |
| K900 | * Just have the default PL for a room at -1 | 06:05:14 |
| K900 | And then have a bot promote people to 0 | 06:05:22 |
