I guess I am not able to make you understand my problem.
I guess we can continue whenever you are with your laptop. '=D

Each function in utils is well documented, I don't think it should cause any prob in inferring data, but yes, I will try to understand your problem better once I have my laptop :)
what's the advantage of matrix over irc ? decentralized?
ruaok
more features -- more slack like.
Lotheric
could we/should we/will we switch too ? :)
more features is nice
ruaok
well, a few of us are on IRCcloud, which already gives us nice features, but we pay for each person.

I'll probably leave this for someone else to complain about before thinking about creating more work.
Lotheric
I'm fine with IRC :)
Rotab
long live irc!

ruaok: The beauty of a decentralized chat platform like Matrix is, you don't have to host the infrastructure :)
People here are already using Matrix and Riot too
ruaok
I like the sound of that.

It's possible to get a cleaner Matrix<->IRC integration by connecting a bot from Riot, instead of using the Freenode gateway bridged hosted by matrix.org
If there was an interest, I could help facilitate that for #metabrainz. It wouldn't change anything on IRC, but it would enable more advanced features for MAtrix/Riot users
Like profile pictures for the group chat room
(For anyone curious, the Matrix terms are bridged rooms vs. plumbed rooms)

is there a free client ?
kepstin
most matrix clients are free and open source, including the Riot web/desktop client.
mozilla ended up getting (presumably paid) hosting from https://modular.im/ rather than using an existing large public server or self-hosting.

Lotheric: cleanup of portal URLs is not possible. The link is a search result ^^
Lotheric
aah
thanks, I followed the link from ISNI website
they store search results ?
boooo
SothoTalKer
it's annoying, but you have to copy the url under "Link zu diesem Datensatz"
FWIW, as freenode staff, the Matrix people do not seem to have such a good grasp of their IRC bridging as some users of their service claims/thinks, but I don’t know enough about the technical details about it.
I do know that other freenode staffers who are closer to the metal relatively commonly complain about issues with Matrix people.

as far as it goes, https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-ircd (an "ircd" which is just a protocol bridge to turn an irc client into a matrix client) seems like a much better option than attempting to do two-way synchronization between two very different protocols that both have state.
SothoTalKer
who does everyone try to improve the already perfect IRC (:
