I’m wondering if anyone made a fediverse like (aka multiple instances talking to eachother) for discord?

I know matrix exists, but it’s only rooms instead of servers with channels, etc…

    I’m not very familiar with the matrix protocol but rocket.chat advertises itself as having implemented the matrix protocol. What you said is also true according to their documentation, so now I’m confused about what is actually going on. Based on what rocket.chat implemented, is it wrong to say that they use the matrix protocol? And what are the limitations of their approach as opposed to a full implementation of it?

      I guess they are being creative on marketing with having implemented a small part of the matrix protocol via their appservice bridge.

      The disadvantage is that it is just a bridge like many others and totally dependent on Synapse, which is a resource hog and open-core.

        I reached out to them and they told me they are currently working in implementing the native protocol and they’ll replace the bridge with it.
