For those of you who don't know, the Blahaj Zone admin team runs a matrix space for gender diverse folk. Similar to lemmy, it's designed with a few "official" channels, but is otherwise a community curated space, with channels run by our members. You don't have to be a blahaj zone user to join.

If you're already a matrix user, you can head straight to our application room https://matrix.to/#/#gv-apply:chat.blahaj.zone, or by searching for #gv-apply:chat.blahaj.zone from within your matrix client.

If you're new to matrix, you can find some more details and an instruction video on how to get up and running here https://chat.blahaj.zone/c/genderverse/

the genderverse in the matrix? neo and trinity would be proud. :')

we can hereby rename all the trolls to anderson

[–] DanielleA@lemmy.blahaj.zone 7 points 1 year ago

Please no😧🚨.

That's my last name. I am no bridge troll, I am a dual sword warrior goddess.

I've just discovered matrix (and xmpp) and I gotta say im loving this corner of the internet more with each passing day

I am having issues, after accepting the dm invite from the bot I have not received any messages from it, UPDATE after cleaning my client's cache it worked fine

[–] ada@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 1 year ago

What is your matrix username? I'll get it approved manually for you!

[–] cirdanlunae@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Trying to signup with chat.blahaj.zone. It seems the registration token isn't valid. Does anyone know if there is a new token? Thanks!

[–] ada@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 points 11 months ago (2 children)

I'll generate a new one. We put a limit on how many times they can be used so we don't get spam bot waves

[–] kittenz@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Is there another new one, I am getting the same error. Thank you

[–] ada@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Where are you finding the token? There are plenty left, but it's possible I haven't updated all of the locations.

[–] kittenz@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I used the link for joining the matrix server as a new user: https://chat.blahaj.zone/c/genderverse/

[–] EscapedMoss@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I'm also trying to signup, and it sais "M_UNAUTHORIZED Invalid registration token". If i understand correctly I'm having the same issue here.

[–] ada@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 points 10 months ago

Sorry, you found the one place I hadn't updated it with the new code! Done now :)

[–] cirdanlunae@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 11 months ago

Thank you thank you! The limit makes sense ;)

[–] GroupNebula563@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 9 months ago

On the topic of Matrix, does anyone know of any good matrix homeservers with XMPP bridging enabled?

[–] queenyeen@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Is it still possible to register an acvount in chat.blahaj.zone ? When I try it's not an option in the server list :(

[–] ada@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

The default server reset itself when we updated cinny. You can still type in chat.blahaj.zone manually until we get it fixed!

[–] queenyeen@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I'm a little embarrassed but: how? The list of possible servers doesn't have a blank slot.

[–] ada@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 1 year ago

You just delete the text and type it in. But that being said, it should be fixed now

[–] oftheair@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

We have been wondering. Is there any chance of a Signal group?

[–] ada@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Kaity and I aren't going to run one, as it's a centralised service. However, people are welcome to create one and share the details here (or ideally, in a thread of its own for better visibility).

[–] oftheair@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 1 year ago

Okidoke. Thanks for letting us know!

[–] andy1@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 11 months ago (2 children)

Is Matrix basically the decentralized version of like Discord?

[–] ada@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 points 11 months ago

Basically! Though, with encrypted channel options

It functions in about the same way. It won't look exactly the same but it is as you said the best "decentralized" alternative to Discord. Besides initial setup, it shouldn't be hard to use.

[–] cowboycrustation@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Thanks ada and kaity

Edit: commented on the wrong post. Oops.

[–] stgiga@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 2 years ago (2 children)

The join button isn't working.

[–] ada@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

It looks like the matrix.to redirector is having some issues. You can bypass it by just searching for #gv-apply:chat.blahaj.zone within your client and joining that way

@neuracnu@lemmy.blahaj.zone

[–] neuracnu@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Same (using element.io). I’m in several other matrix rooms, but it seems like the JS or form action on the join button is harfed.

Thanks for the post. I've been wanting to try matrix for a while, but didn't know where to start.

[–] Ultragramps@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 2 years ago

Just got Element for iOS and joined! ᕕ( ᐛ)ᕗ

[–] echedeylr@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

It seems the rooms are not listed in the spaces. At least from FluffyChat.

Will check in Cinny once I return to home.

[–] krimsonbun@lemmy.blahaj.zone 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Verification system is very on the nose, in my opinion.

[–] ada@lemmy.blahaj.zone 8 points 2 years ago (1 children)

It's necessary because we had a transphobic troll target us for a while, who would create throw away accounts, join the channel and post all sorts of horrible shit where everyone could see it.

So we needed a system that means that accounts like that aren't exposed to our main community spaces until we're reasonably confident that they're legit.

It's the same reason we use an application on this lemmy instance.

[–] krimsonbun@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 1 year ago

Oh that's fair
