Problems using Matrix on Libera.Chat have been reported over recent days, impacting projects. The @matrix bridge is one-way in some rooms & message delivery can't be guaranteed. We have communicated to EMS on this matter and hope they have a resolution ASAP.

Libera Chat

@matrix after a few days broken, @matrix appear to have restarted the IRC bridge they operate. The Matrix/Libera link should be restored for now.

@liberachat this was a bit more than a restart :P glad it’s working again.

@matrix @liberachat why the matrix protocol not is copyleft?

@omlet @liberachat for the same reason that HTTP isn’t copyleft: because we want as many people to use it as possible, rather than usage being constrained by GPL’s limits, however laudable they are.

@matrix @omlet @liberachat the synapse and dendrite too not is copyleft

But is possible create alternative in copyleft

The question is why?

@matrix @liberachat is there an incident write-up someplace that I could read? If it was serious enough to warrant a non-trivial investigation and resolution I'd love to learn about both halves of that.
