I'd use Matrix but the last time I jumped on all the chats were dead and the ones I had joined had all been spammed with CSAM.
Might need to find more active communities?
The spam thing is annoying, but is a result of anyone being able to join a room and just upload images.
Really wish the large rooms would just disable image uploads, or use a bot to police new users a bit.
I'm pretty much since the beginning on Matrix. I have never experienced any questionable content. Large chats (thousands of users) have some spam problems, but the spammers banned quickly and the posts are being removed.
What am I doing right?
just this week I've had multiple random matrix accounts start a chat with me to post an Imgur link with some Hitler bs. I assume they just chose random members of one or more fediverse related public matrix rooms to send that to. they probably just do this with random public rooms and the fediverse relation didn't matter.
