Had a frustrating day with Matrix.
Anyway, back on my default profile. Was hoping I could register elsewhere and decrease the load on matrix.org.
Oh well...

@fatboy Are you on matrix.org?
You can use privacytools matrix hosting server......

@thunderdragon900 I kept my default matrix acc. Tried tchncs and privacytools.

@fatboy @thunderdragon900 why couldn’t you switch? I’m curious to try hosting my own, but hear that it’s quite resource intensive.

@exstral @thunderdragon900 I had trouble chatting to other users on other servers.
Matrix is decentralized, but I think most of its users are on the official server, so decentralization is still in its infancy?
Anyway, the issue was that the encryption exchange didn't happen, so I could not read received messages.

@fatboy @exstral
It happened with me also. But then i saw a setting like send messages to unverified sessions. I turned it off and everything got fine. Its verification is a little confusing. Matrix is my 2nd decentralized thing. I have not used xmpp still.........
