And lastly, this one is more for admins of other instances but we have opened a "LW Defense HQ" room which we want to use in our ongoing fight against spammers: https://matrix.to/#/#defense:lemmy.world
Come join us!
EDIT: Madlad @ruud@lemmy.world was easily convinced to set up a lemmy.world matrix server. So I edited the links to the new space and rooms. The old ones still work too!
it's for channel - room communication. It works well, unless you have a spam problem on matrix because then they bypass the anti-spam protections of discord. but if you don't have a spam problem, it's great
Yes but no. Yes, technically possible. No, I donโt think itโs what youโre looking for - youโd want to create your own bot for your own account (each user needs its own bot), and itโs technically against Discord TOS to use, so use at your own risk.
Can you share what type of bot youโre using? The last time I tried this, I had to add a personal app key for the bot, which was linked to my account. It created a bunch of discordbot profiles, one for each user in my contacts, and added them to the server. Iโm not positive but I think that anyone who messages these profiles will be messaging my contacts, though I think they didnโt appear in the directory by default. Either way, if anyone wanted to setup a new user, they would need to go through the same process I did, which includes having admin access to the server.
