I usually explain it like email, most people get it then. Doesn't matter if you're using @outlook.com or @gmail.com when sending an email, you can talk to users on either as long as you specify the server address (which is mandatory in email anyway).

    Yes same!! They just get confused on what a server is. They dont get that our room on matrix.org is not a server. And what is matrix vs their clients like element commet fluffychat..I try to explain its the client vs the protocol but then I get called a big old nerd 😁

    Discord warped a lot of minds on terminology.
