Was just interested in joining Matrix and since my lemmy account was on a Canadian server was wondering if my Matrix account could be too.

https://joinmatrix.org/servers/ lists 3 instances of Canada, but https://kitsunes.chat/ seems to be the only one.

Personally I'm on the main matrix.org server, with a backup on Mozilla's (https://chat.mozilla.org/#/welcome)

Hmmm just the url of kitsunes.chat doesn't really appeal to me I'm leaning toward matrix.org but I'll spend a little more time and see I suppose

Shame that matrix.ca is already registered even though it points to nothing right now. I was thinking of volunteering to cover that cost (depending on renewal fee) if someone was willing to help out with spinning up a matrix server.

Yeah, that's unfortunate that it's taken but unused

I've contacted them to see if they would be willing to transfer it to us. Figured I'd have better luck as a Lemmy admin then just someone random. The domain name is under $20 a year so it's a non issue.

Amazing!! Hopefully they're open to it, it would be great to have both lemmy.ca and matrix.ca available.

I wondered that too and eventually registered on the main Matrix server. Oh well :)

I kind of down want to do that. But it seems harder to find a Matrix server than a Lemmy/Mastodon instance

Let's see what the current owner of matrix.ca says.

Would be awesome if it works out
