I spent some time last night improving the spaces and our room directory.

I've added several rooms from different fediverse associated instances to the :qoto.org space.

I have also added about half a dozen room servers related to other instances and servers to our room search. So should be easy for you to find most rooms anywhere in the federated universe.

Again: you can join this space (or the others in the linked post) from any matrix user on any server. If you dont have a user you are free to register one on QOTO at: element.qoto.org

So I setup a list of maybe 30 highly active matrix rooms organized into Matrix Spaces on the QOTO Matrix server (though you can access them from any spaces enabled matrix server).

Just login to your existing matrix account on any server, or register for a free one at element.qoto.org (registration open to everyone). Then join any of the following spaces (make sure you turn on spaces in your config under labs first).

Please let me know if you have any rooms you'd like to suggest to be added to any of the below spaces. Also, feel free to create your own space and share it.

:qoto.org - Rooms related to QOTO itself

:qoto.org - Various rooms from matrix servers that have a fediverse hosted as part of the same community.

:qoto.org - A collection of general topic STEM rooms like Electronics, Physics, Math, etc.

:qoto.org - Rooms specific to Countries, towns or regions around the world.

:qoto.org - Channels for various open-source projects

-distros_space:qoto.org - Rooms for various linux distribtuion flavors.

When I was younger, I thought that the defining distinction between and was **solidarity** — as in, the former necessarily _has_ to have way more of it than the latter.

Gradually I came to realise that characterisation is problematic for three reasons:

1. want to _impose_ , which is an oxymoron (by definition, you can't mandate voluntary inclinations, such as affection or desire, on people).
1. In practice, and at least in my own country (), the Left has become pro-independence and sympathetic towards secessionists (but more solidarity would require larger unions, stronger federations — not the richest regions going their own way).
1. Sometimes the Right puts in practice _more_ solidarity towards certain groups or causes (eg, non-elites, non-conformists, disadvantaged people who reject the orthodoxy) than the Left itself.

I now think that the **ratio _personal freedom_ vs _economic freedom_** better categorises Left vs. Right (cf ). I like to think of those two dimensions as “ to do what you please with your **body**” (food, drugs, euthanasia, suicide, sex, read, speech, thought, association, religion) and “freedom to do what you please with your **property**” (save, invest, buy, sell, donate, build, trade, settle).

This is not a defence of or , by the way — I do believe _certain_ restrictions on both kinds of liberties are necessary for any society to function at all.

That is actually not that bad an idea, strangely enough. :P

Bot others to tech ourselves?

What should we name QOTO's new Matrix chat bot (mostly issues informational commands or other helpful utilities).
