 Cat | The room ID is an opaque string with 0 meaning and no defined algorithm for its creation just a rule about that the origin hs is the same as room creator. | 10:39:12 |
 emily | In reply to @ralith:ralith.com
if anything, having the hs in the id makes that easier since it's predictable but not authenticated in any way okay yeah this is what I was unsure about | 13:08:16 |
| emily | so it's truly pointless | 13:08:40 |

The room ID is an opaque string with 0 meaning and no defined algorithm for its creation just a rule about that the origin hs is the same as room creator. I'm surprised people don't use it to put fake vanity domains in | 13:08:41 |
| Cat | The full ruleset for room ids are !*:homeserver and the * represents all legal characters. | 13:16:48 |
| emily | but if the home server isn't authenticated you can put whatever you want there, right? | 13:21:06 |
| Cat | Its authenticated as part of the auth rules. | 13:28:59 |
| Cat | The homeserver of the room ID is authenticated via the homeserver of the user who sent the creation event and all that ties back to homeserver signing keys and TLS. | 13:29:40 |
| Cat | * The homeserver of the room ID is authenticated via the homeserver of the user who sent the creation event and all that ties back to homeserver signing keys and TLS. (TLS isnt involved in homeserver signing keys but is involved in being able to even start the process of claiming you are a certain homeserver) | 13:30:10 |
|  pacha left the room. | 13:48:33 |
| emily | getting mixed messages here :) but ok, that makes some more sense | 14:11:18 |

sent an image. Yeah it's a broken mess. Matrix is a dysfunctional protocol. | 16:19:58 |
| WeetHet | Who should we ask to create a room under NixOS/Community? | 19:15:23 |
|  Niklas Korz joined the room. | 19:16:04 |
| Niklas Korz | K900 said to post it in #matrix-suggestions:nixos.org | 19:17:03 |
| Niklas Korz | I think we'd have to create the room ourselves first, and then as stated there invite the NixOS matrix admin and make it an owner | 19:17:19 |
| Niklas Korz | (but only invite admin after we got the ok in suggestions) | 19:17:35 |
