Ottawa chatrooms:

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.

So I recently followed a short rabbit hole to something that seems worth sharing. There's a small group of artists/DIYers in Ottawa who participate in something called the Third Culture Collective. Looks like there's some local bands involved (moridori is one that was on my radar), and some rumbles that more is coming re: the site.

Found it by way of a homemade sticker for one of the members at a small business I frequent here. Seems neat, open to aligned participants and of possible interest to Fediverse loving locals. Who knows - maybe this is just the kind of thing someone reading this is looking for!

We have a forum, fediverse, IRC and voice chat.

I'm down to learn more, especially since they have IRC lol.
