I had already posted this with a lemm.ee account, and moved here because lemmy.world is hosted in EU, but seems like the post got deleted along with the account. I’m sorry for the possible spam.
the fediverse chat protocol
started as a seperate project but is spiritually very aligned with the rest of the fediverse
so it got “included” to the fediverse (not compatible with ActivityPub)
if you want to try it: https://element.io/ (or other clients: https://matrix.org/ecosystem/clients/ )
so the way usernames are managed is @username:instance, so, if I’m in the matrix one, it would be @elrecoal19:matrix.org, and yet I can contact people on other instances like @friend:differentInstance, right?
yes, that’s exactly the idea
it works just like e-mail adresses but for chats
okay, thanks for explaining!
