Step one for downtown...have things opened past 3pm
This is going to be a failure all around.
News, events, discussions, and what not from Ottawa, Ontario.

XMPP: empty

Please note the following:
* All chatrooms are linked together. If you join one room your messages will be copied to the other platforms.
* Matrix is an open source and potentially distributed chat protocol. The matrix room listed is hosted on matrix.org, a somewhat centralized hub for a lot of currently public rooms. Though the protocol itself is free, libre and open source, the deployment of the protocol resembles a centralized service. This may be fixed in the future with the deployment of independent servers.
* Be aware that both Telegram and Discord are centralized proprietary platforms and do not necessarily protect your rights nor privacy while simultaneously giving power to corporations.

That'd be nice wouldn't it? I live in Centretown but even it makes me feel like I'm still living in my small hometown. Ottawa's not a huge city but things should be open later, even on Sundays damn it
