>From within matrix one can join any freenode IRC channel by joining a
room by the name #freenode_:matrix.org

The racket IRC channel is accessible on matrix as

#freenode_#racket:matrix.org

Using the element web client I can access the room at this URL:
https://app.element.io/#/room/#freenode_#racket:matrix.org

AFAICT this creates an syncronized matrix room for the channel behind
the scenes; also it has message history, so acts similarly to an IRC
bouncer in this regard.

Since the Racket IRC channel requires that your nick is registered,
before accessing it from matrix, you should authenticate with NickServ:

I would just clarify that in the case of Racket, the IRC channel and the matrix 
room are the same room (they are joined together via a bridge).

@Adam What I see with your link is a giant wall of text, It is quite 
overwhelming to get greeted by huge correspondence like that.
This thread was simply about helping somebody who wants to find help with 
basic racket problems find a place where there are people who can help in 
an interactive manner that is an alternative to the mailing list.

@Yury nobody has to use discord, it is simply an option for those who 
accept the cons of using a service like that, because it works for them.

Re: [racket-users] Add Link to the racket Discord to the racket website?

Just my 5 cents...

Recently I had to register on a discord "server" to ask a question
within another community - and the experience was of a high barrier of
entry. I needed to provide my age, confirm my email, then (that might be
an issue of that particular "server" - I'm not sure) I was forced to
wait 5 minutes before I could interact. Also I notice now that discord
sends me email notifications that contain third-party tracking.

Another walled garden trying to make me an addict of their service.

The only thing I want to do now is delete any of my presence on discord.

The IRC + Matrix combination is much more open and inclusive I think.

And there is a question of transparency of governance and moderation of
course.

[racket-users] Add Link to the racket Discord to the racket website?

The racket discord is managed quite well, I think it should be added to the 
racket website so that newcomers can find it easier, just a thought.

Maybe below the link to slack?
