We now have a chat room for the smallest of talks! Just kidding. Infodumping is encouraged.

Rather than using Discord, we'll be using Matrix, which is a FOSS equivalent. It's pretty intuitive, so signing up shouldn't be much of a hassle, but let me know if you have any difficulties.

Here's a list of most Matrix clients: https://matrix.org/ecosystem/clients/

I don't have an iPhone, so I don't know what the iPhone equivalent for this is. If you find out, let me know and I will adjust this post and the sidebar.

This post has been added the sidebar.

Am I OP being called ๐Ÿ’ฉ?

I honestly don't know much about this. I wasn't suggesting it was. I was trying to ask as I'm also new to all of this. ๐Ÿ˜ตโ€๐Ÿ’ซ

No, I was in no way judging you at all. Sorry if I was confusing. I was referring to myself as the OP that made the original post and saying that I was full of ๐Ÿ’ฉ for being wrong. Thanks for asking to clear up the misunderstanding ๐Ÿ™‚

Oh, thanks for clarifying! I thought I commit an unknown aggravating behaviour. Feel much better with your comment. ๐Ÿ™‡
