A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

They're working on MXIDs as well so @hostname.com wouldn't be a thing anymore.

Are you sure about that? I think they'll still exist, but will be less meaningful, as a users identity will be backed by cryptography instead of their name with the HS name

afaik server domains would essentially just be aliases for a user's UUID, like how it works with rooms.
