Proof of Concept curated list of spaces as opposed to room directory

Table of Contents

Foreword

Earlier on 2024-02-29 I called Matrix room directory as a mistake that sholdnt have been implemented and offered curated spaces or room lists as a solution instead.

I used to have one in this location, but it was kind of bitrotted and unmaintained, so I removed it until now restoring it greater than before.

Of course this file makes me the curator/authority of room listing and thus I challenge you, the reader, to make your own space or version of this file, maybe I can even link to your list here? 😺

Room IDs should be included so advanced users can use them in case of alias server downtime, but that would be effort and this proof of concept is yet untested.


If you are having issues with the links, please see issue tracker of your client, e.g.:

Element Web, Element Android and Element iOS


Spaces

Spaces around a single individual

  • #eu.aminda.space.10:pikaviestin.fi is my own space, it may not yet host interesting or random discussions that much, but sometimes I find it motivating to see that I am doing things when I see git forge/commit activity. !fGtopoZuCySnTsSdsU:matrix.org (v10)

Matrix protocol

  • #community:matrix.org is your space for anything Matrix related, whether a homeserver, client, bot, anything. And as you are hearing of it now from my listing, I can highlight my favourites:

Technology

  • #ftechspace:matrix.org furries and technology allowing non-tech subjects too and sign of furries on your platform is sign of your platform being alive! !NHApwMwsFHfFrRMfrD:jae.fi v6)

Finnish

  • #matrix-suomi:kapsi.fi is a curated listing of Finnish language rooms about all subjects. !WDaMZSVinTZRLOTajM:hacklab.fi (v6)
