under Teams or Topics? It's kind of like both, so I'd say Topics but neither is wrong :) | 11:58:13 |
 @grahamc:nixos.org | I'll do Topic :) | 11:58:30 |
| @grahamc:nixos.org | it is really cross-cutting | 11:58:35 |
| @grahamc:nixos.org | #docs:nixos.org | 11:59:12 |
| @grahamc:nixos.org | naming these things is so hard, I really really really hope Matrix finds a way to associate grouping metadata wit the display soon | 11:59:34 |
 pinage404 | in the NixOS space, there is all rooms listed, then groups of rooms containing previously listed rooms, why the rooms are listed twice ? | 12:03:15 |

naming these things is so hard, I really really really hope Matrix finds a way to associate grouping metadata wit the display soon This is a hard problem because a room can be a member of multiple spaces. There has been some talk about a room's "main space" which may help but I think this is way down the road.
For now I generally think name a room based on how you would like it to show up in your room list, so generally a short uniqueish string first, then a suffix with a "group" like Nix or NixOS. Then I like to put some disambiguation in the topic. This seems to be fairly well expected but I assume it isn't universal.

So that you don't have to join every subspace for the rooms to be filterable i didn't joined the "Nix Teams" yet, but i can filter ; maybe i didn't understand what you mean | 12:08:11 |
| @grahamc:nixos.org | yeah, but the problem is we don't have a name for our thing that isn't also a specific other thing | 12:08:22 |

| @grahamc:nixos.org | Nix Documentation? nope. Nix*? maybe. Nix / Nixpkgs / NixOS? now you're cooking | 12:08:46 |

| Domen Kožar | I call these things Nix ecosystem, but it's a mouthful | 12:12:50 |
| Domen Kožar | Nix* gives it a *Nix vibe so it's slightly less vague than Nix :D | 12:13:14 |
| Domen Kožar | we should rename the project to The Nix Way and be done with it ^^ | 12:14:54 |

i didn't joined the "Nix Teams" yet, but i can filter ; maybe i didn't understand what you mean You can filter precisely because they're duplicated. If they were just in subspaces you wouldn't be able to. | 12:16:07 |
| pinage404 | so it's a "hack" to bypass a matrix issue ? | 12:17:24 |
| @grahamc:nixos.org | please hold discussion elsewhere, otherwise it is very difficult to keep up with requests | 12:27:00 |

| @grahamc:nixos.org | * please hold discussion elsewhere, otherwise it is very difficult to keep up with requests (I think this came off a bit grumpier than I intended. I'm not grumpy about it :) just a periodic reminder) | 12:28:48 |
 7c6f434c | Suggestion: create a room specifically for discussions of suggestions and directly related issues, to remove doubt what is the most fitting room. (I guess replacing «elsewhere» with a specific room link would also work). | 12:29:09 |
| @grahamc:nixos.org | great idea: #matrix-discussion:nixos.org :D | 12:30:41 |
| @grahamc:nixos.org changed the room topic to "" from "". | 12:43:28 |
|  Jez (he/him) left the room. | 15:04:16 |
|  hmenke joined the room. | 15:58:43 |
