Bug ID: 438664
Summary: [Feature Request] Krita Chat via #krita:matrix.org
Product: krita
Version: unspecified
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: General
Assignee: krita-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: lorend...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
Seeing as how beloved IRC server Freenode of 20 years dropped all channels and
users today including #krita by switching to a new server software
** https://isfreenodedeadyet.com/
** https://www.devever.net/~hl/freenode_suicide
Since moving to a new channel is necessary, I request that Matrix be considered
as some channels are moving to Matrix & it's much easier for users to use and
has advanced features built in like.
I request that since a new channel is necessary - the replacement consider
Matrix as it would be easier to reach a wider audience since Matrix is much
easier to use for new users than IRC which requires so many text commands &
tech know-how.
There already is a channel for #krita on matrix.org with several dozen users by
@shadowrun:matrix.org It shouldn't be too hard to get admin.
Matrix has a variety of apps for different users preferred chat styles --

As Matrix is a open network it's entirely possible for Krita or KDE to host
their own Matrix Synapse server, eg:
https://hub.docker.com/r/matrixdotorg/synapse/ if they were interested in doing
so.
