We have recently installed a [Matrix](https://matrix.org) homeserver and
|
|
|
|
thereby joined this interoperable, decentralised, real-time communication
|
|
|
|
network. See the [Matrix homepage](https://matrix.org) about what it precisely
|
|
|
|
is and how it works, but it can basically function as a replacement for
|
|
|
|
Slack/Whatsapp/XMPP/etc.

We host our own [Riot](https://riot.im) web client, which is available at
|
|
|
|
[chat.luon.net](https://chat.luon.net). However, you can use any Matrix
|
|
|
|
desktop/mobile client or app you like. See
|
|
|
|
[this page](https://matrix.org/docs/projects/try-matrix-now) for an overview of
|
|
|
|
what exists. Every Luon user is free to start their own rooms on the Luon
|
|
|
|
homeserver, or join rooms or start chats anywhere on Matrix.

Our Matrix server is located at [matrix.luon.net](https://matrix.luon.net). If
|
|
|
|
you have a Luon account, you can immediately log in and use it. Our Matrix IDs
|
|
|
|
are of the form: `@user:luon.net`.

|
**Note**: We currently have no bridges to IRC or other communication networks
|
|
|
|
such as Discord/Slack/etc. installed, nor VoIP support or other integrations.
|
|
|
|
For this, you will currently have to rely on Matrix' own bridges and
|
|
|
|
integrations.

**Note 2**: This installation is not completely definitive yet, but you can
|
|
|
|
probably rely on us keeping it around.
