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.

    I got an iphone and I use element client which generally works well but I somehow can’t open your link and I cant find the room on matrix.org. No idea how to proceed. Got any hints? :)

    Hmm, I wonder if that's happening to others. Either way, DM me on Matrix, and I can send you an invite 👍

    @backonmytbs:matrix.org

    Edit: never mind! I did make a typo. There was an extra t added in there. 🤦‍♂️

    This is the correct username: @backonmybs:matrix.org

    I‘m not sure if you made a typo in your username but I sent someone a message with your exact username (instead of the one you wrote). That correct? :)

    I don't think I made a typo. I just had someone in the Matrix chat try to DM me using the link in my profile, and it worked. If you want, you can try the same and see if there's a problem or not.

    Edit: I definitely made a typo 🤦

    Thank you! As I'm learning more about my own autism, I'm quite willing to share experiences.

    Contact me directly on Matrix so that we could troubleshoot it: @backonmybs:matrix.org
