It's like IRC. Just zany enough to keep out the riff raff.
Oh the IRC days, what a time
IRC is hugely flawed but also, I miss it. Could we have a federated discord? It'd basically be irc but easier to find stuff right?
Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't that what Matrix is?
All matrix is to me is a classic late nineties action sci fi movie.
The Matrix but they use the Matrix protocol on a The Matrix themed Matrix IRC channel talking about talking about The Matrix in the Matrix protocol in a The Matrix themed Matrix IRC channel (woops sorry that is the Matrix 2 I think my bad)

There's also a way to add matrix usernames to Lemmy accounts, so it's possible to make an app that ties the two together. Is that a feature people would care about?
Likely no
