I’ll miss my HOTAS / HOSAS / SIMPIT / DIY Discord channels starting next month.
Anyone knows some alternative Spaces on Matrix by chance?
I’m aware of the tiny https://matrix.to/#/#hotasdiy:matrix.org channel with 21 members. That’s something I guess.
Acronyms: HOTAS = Hands on Throttle and Stick
HOSAS = Hands on Stick and Stick
SIMPIT = Simulation/Simulated Cockpit
HomeCockpit FlightSim Joystick Gamepad Controller

Edit: We started collecting a list of spaces / rooms at https://matrix.to/#/#aerospace-space:hacklab.fi Some rooms there are bridged to IRC or even Discord. This includes rooms for the usual suspects, like X-Plane, MSFS, DCS and even Flightgear. YMMV
Sysadmin here. Forget about it. People are a drop in the ocean on website requests nowadays. Anything is getting hammered all day long already by legions of bots. Mostly scrapers and many more bad actors. The numbers are staggering - one could simply not compete by hammering F5 for refresh any more.
People? Hah. We’ll all have agents for that soon whether we like it or not.
I hate this timeline. So much.
