There may be some confusion here about the dynamics of Matrix bridging. In practice, when bridging to IRC, Matrix just acts as a big decentralised IRC bouncer. It connects on a per-network, not a per-channel basis, and the Matrix users who pop up on IRC look and feel like a normal IRC client connection... because they are. It just happens to be that the client is running on a Matrix/IRC bridge and syncing that user's history into Matrix for them. One can lock a bridge to a particular channel, but generally that's missing the point. > If anybody want to volunteer a channel for iniital bridging, please speak up > and we will add it. #gnome-hackers was mentioned before, but I don't think > that is sufficiently a good place to land people from matrix IMHO due to > cultural differences and honestly it is a place for our devs to hang out as a > social channel.
