matrix is #room:matrix.org and @username:matrix.org

why does lemmy use !room@sh.itjust.works or @username@sh.itjust.works ? it looks like email.

i like the matrix version better

    • #room:matrix.org this one won’t be possible. # is used for tags/hashtags in mastodon, one of the largest fediverse software. Currently only mbin and piefed support tags. PieFed will work on mastodon’s support when API work is over. So the # may create problem later.
    • @user@server why not ? We use email example to explain federation. But we could change with @ to : because we use @ for mention in lot software. :)
