Hi y'all! Is there interest in having daily discussion threads like we did over on reddit? (self.losangeles)

yes please! honestly, I'm looking for a community of fellow angelinos right now. I wish there was a matrix option that got any traction. I have a matrix room myself dedicated to la, but nobody has shown any interest.

edit to add, I think matrix is the better place for actual conversations, but it's really frustrating when moderators and administrators go absentee.

is matrix something that's in the fediverse?

not quite. think of it more like discord. it's decentralized real-time chat.

people usually connect to it through a client called element. https://element.io

Oh! I liked the forum thread format more because it was easy to scroll back through the day and comment on things without feeling like too much of a conversational necromancer
