Please note the following:

* All chatrooms are linked together. If you join one room your messages will be copied to the other platforms.

* Matrix is an open source and potentially distributed chat protocol. The matrix room listed is hosted on matrix.org, a somewhat centralized hub for a lot of currently public rooms. Though the protocol itself is free, libre and open source, the deployment of the protocol resembles a centralized service. This may be fixed in the future with the deployment of independent servers.

* Be aware that both Telegram and Discord are centralized proprietary platforms and do not necessarily protect your rights nor privacy while simultaneously giving power to corporations.

Not really sure how to feel about this one. On one hand I get how much it'll suck to be limited on how much garbage I can put out, but on the other it doesn't seem like we'll have a viable replacement for the Trail Road facility soon enough (assuming the counselors make a decision to start replacing it).

It sorta feels like the councilors unwilling to compromise are just trying to push the problem down the road.
