 uep | ok, that alias now resolves as intended for me. I may simply have not realised there were two when I moved it a month or so ago, or maybe the old room kept it / resurrected it because of sync issues | 22:51:19 |
 Charles | (tombstones yes but the source of truth for aliases is not room state, it's stored separately) | 22:51:44 |

| uep | yeah, i had to re-issue the tombstone for that one back then too) | 22:52:22 |

 emily | I feel like we've had the space be weird with aliases | 22:53:09 |
| emily | for whatever reason | 22:53:14 |
| emily | as in #space:nixos.org being the old one for some pople | 22:53:22 |
| Charles | it's entirely possible there is jank around aliases but it would be different mechanisms of jank | 22:53:52 |
| uep | yes. well. | 22:54:29 |
 Sandro 🐧 | can I somehow force this on my own server? | 22:55:17 |
| Charles |
- https://spec.matrix.org/v1.14/client-server-api/#get_matrixclientv3directoryroomroomalias
- https://spec.matrix.org/v1.14/server-server-api/#get_matrixfederationv1querydirectory
maybe servers cache these responses which then causes problems?

| Charles | would have to look at the source code of your particular HS | 23:00:04 |
| uep | does the #offtopic:nixos.org link not go to the right place for you now? (maybe after clearing client cache) | 23:00:39 |
| Sandro 🐧 | Interesting 🤔
On both my devices the nixos.org link goes to the right room, just on my desktop the lossy network does not but on mobile it also goes to the correct room | 23:13:11 |
| Sandro 🐧 | So client state seems to play role | 23:13:20 |

would have to look at the source code of your particular HS Synapse | 23:13:42 |
