  I have already spun up an instance for my friends. It was easier than I thought. You can bridge it into Discord an import the history of all channels of your servers.

    How can you do this? I just spun up an Element container but am still learning about Matrix as a whole.

        Thanks. Turns out I only spun up the web client. Explains why I wasn’t really “connecting” to my own server in my testing!

        Going to give this and Stoat a try, but I did like the little I saw of Matrix in the public server.
