We have built a bridge to XMPP/Jabber!

IRC, Matrix and XMPP are now bridged together on Calculate Linux

Use any of IRC, Matrix or XMPP client application to join the Calculate community and start chatting.

There is no point in describing the features of each protocol here, since you do not need to change anything if you are already using them. Just come to our chat room. If you do not use any of the clients that support these protocols, try Matrix.

New Jabber settings

All Jabber users will have to update their account settings and generate a new password. We decided to shorten the Jabber ID to @calculate-linux.org in line with what appears in Matrix. As with Matrix, you do not have to have an account on calculate-linux.org to be able to chat.

This is how you join the Calculate community:
