Hello, today I would like to announce the creation of a mattermost group “Casual Selfhosters”.

I created it because I feel like there is a need for real time chat at times when it comes to helping someone with selfhosting and some aspects of communication generally work better in real time chat, than in a forum like setting like what lemmy does.

The server is hosted on a dedicated hetzner machine.

I would love for the mattermost group to grow alongside this lemmy community and be a good addition in helping other people get into selfhosting.

Hoping for good feedback to make the community even better and hope people will find it usefull if they are ever in need of real time chat to help someone across the globe.

    I don’t know what Mattermost is and clicking on the link that OP provided I only see a sign-up page. I don’t know before signing up what kind of content to expect. Not quite enticing to sign up in that case on what looks like some random page.

    Good idea but I am not sure this can take off. But maybe I am not the target population here.

      It’s discord like interface and I plan on only having selfhosted related content on it, mostly just for people to help one another in a more “well known” way of discord and real time chatting.
