From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

No, matrix is still very focused on chat room sadly and for the video conferencing you need to use jitsi as far as I am aware, at least thats how we've set it up at work. The thread function in discord is much better actually.
oh, also matrix just added proper e2ee video conferencing that doesnt use jitsi, its a native feature
huh, ive used both, how is the discord implementation better? They seem the same to me.
I mean I am not sure, but in matrix you can just "reply" to a comment in a chat room and therefore create a thread? In discord you can have whole "chatrooms" be transfered to discussion only with threads. I am not sure about the terminology but it looks very different to me. Basically, you can set Discord up like a community board etc.
ooh, you're talking about that, i see. Yeah matrix doesnt have that
