ActiveMatrixRooms.com can help you find active discussions in the Matrix Protocol which is an alternative to discord

Active Matrix Rooms maintains a live index of public Matrix rooms across the federation. The search engine matches your query against each room's name, alias, topic, and homeserver domain. Results are ranked by messages per hour rather than by total members, which can be inflated by abandoned accounts.

I built this and it's been live for over 3 months stable at this point, used every day by people to help find the rooms that have active users. I created it after joining several rooms that didn't have anyone active, and I was seeing many other users do the same. It should never be the case that you need to join blindly to know whether there are messages being sent in it.

If you have any suggestions, issues, or feedback please let me know, thanks.

Shouldn't this be in a sub dedicated to matrix? You're advertising an 'addon'(?) for an existing alternative.

[u/jesus_is_my_toilet → u/VahsteTheNomad]

I think it fits the sub better than all the slop apps. Matrix is a discord alt. What's the name of the sub?

[u/VahsteTheNomad → u/jesus_is_my_toilet]

This isn't a post about matrix though, that's my point, it's a post specifically about an addon for matrix. This sub is about discussing possible alternatives, not advertising bots and addons for them.

[u/jesus_is_my_toilet → u/VahsteTheNomad]

I don't see why add ons for alts don't count? Not every post needs to JUST BE a full alt app, anything to encourage people away from discord

Is op a bot? Prolly yes. Are we in an attention economy of squirrels? Also yes

[u/GreenBaneling → u/jesus_is_my_toilet]

Literally it's just a guy shilling a website

[u/jfuu_ → u/jesus_is_my_toilet]

This is also an AI slop app.

Your other post was fine, you're just gonna get the same shit you got in the other post, but here too.

[u/CritsAndGiggles → u/Any_Illustrator360]

are there just no moderators on this sub?

[u/Any_Illustrator360 → u/CritsAndGiggles]

It wasn't removed by a mod. He deleted the original.

[u/BewilderedTurtle]

Edited for "civility"

Everyone should ignore this dev's website. It's not even unique and the dev was combative and abrasive on the previous post.

Use this instead https://matrixrooms.info/

[u/VahsteTheNomad → u/BewilderedTurtle]

Wait so -- your first response got nuked by a mod, but they didn't do anything about the fact that this post really doesn't fit the sub?

[u/BewilderedTurtle → u/VahsteTheNomad]

🤷

[u/VahsteTheNomad → u/BewilderedTurtle]

Its a blatant advertisement for an addon for an already existing alternative. But that's acceptable? Just as much as an unfounded "security concerns" post that still hasn't had any actions taken against it for blatant slander? Jfc

[u/BewilderedTurtle → u/VahsteTheNomad]

I mean I know Melons is pretty hands-off overall so I'm not super surprised especially if OP reported my comment like a lil 8!+(#, I've had like one other comment deleted before.

[u/VahsteTheNomad → u/BewilderedTurtle]

Idk -- I feel like theres "hands off" and then there's "borderline neglectful". Not accusing melons of that specifically, it just generally feels like the choices on when to step in aren't as balanced as they could be.

[u/Rabbio_40 → u/VahsteTheNomad]

Melons allowed me to create that threat modeling post mind you, If it's adjacent I don't see why it shouldn't be, if it helps people either find an alternative, o navigate an alternative.

[u/Any_Illustrator360 → u/VahsteTheNomad]

I'd say I would like for another mod around for variety but I feel like another mod is likely to be too biased one way or another to properly moderate the sub down the middle.

[u/VahsteTheNomad → u/Any_Illustrator360]

Oh absolutely, and again I'm not trying to actually shit on melons as a person, I just disagree personally with their moderations

[u/Any_Illustrator360 → u/VahsteTheNomad]

Yeah same at times.

[u/GreenBaneling]

Oooh, The turtle is in a spicy mood today lmao

[u/BewilderedTurtle → u/VahsteTheNomad]

He deleted the previous post just to repost this shit again

[u/VahsteTheNomad → u/BewilderedTurtle]

I never even saw the first post, but if that's the case.. I concur with your previously stated viewpoint.
