Configure the Matrix <--> Discord bridge #698
Comments
This bridge bot seems good enough. It is the first one in the list. Its code is also on Github and open source, but let's just use the hosted version. |
I have already invited it to the Matrix Space and it's already there. Now we need to follow through with steps 2-4 (instructions are here, and for that I need someone with access to the Discord server:
For step 4, just tell me the ServerID and I'll add it in Matrix. I'm not sure whether it's possible to bridge the entire Discord server to the Matrix Space, or if I'll need to do this channel by channel. In the latter case, I would appreciate if at least we could do the #Hackathon-general channel for now and leave the rest for later when we have the time. |
It works! Anyone who would like to experiment is welcome to join the Matrix Space at: https://matrix.to/#/#frictionless-data:matrix.org For now, only the |
I think we're done with this. Yay! 🎉 Thank you for doing this together, @lwinfree! |

Now we need to bridge the Discord and Matrix together. Some references:
What is bridging?
Bridges allow interoperability between Matrix and other services (like Discord). Anyone using any of the two services can read and write messages to each other. Think of it like mirroring the community, so that anyone can use the tool that suits them best.
Acceptance
Tasks
Analysis
This should enable more people to join the community even if they don't agree to Discord's controversial terms of service and privacy policy or want to reduce the amount of non-free and open source software they use.
As it turns out, it is not possible to bridge the whole Discord server to a whole Matrix Space. So each channel must be bridged individually.
