chat.fedoraproject.org is the hosted web version of the Element Matrix
client. Users can use any other to login. This is completely optional.
fedoraproject.org is the main Matrix server with all user content.
Well, no. I would say 'matrix.fedoraproject.org' is the matrix server
run by element on our behaf? Or
matrix.fedorapeople.org ?
> Can you also clarify "can always be viewed"?
Matrix is similar to Git. When you join any room, all events and content
will be copied to your homeserver.
For example #foobar:example.org contains pirated content. When you join it
from your
fedoraproject.org account, most of its contents will be copied to
this server and can be viewed by direct hyperlinks (until the cache is
purged).
The links will look like this:
https://fedoraproject.org/_matrix/media/r0/download/example.org/kJsInSvRQ...

Most public services (GitHub, GitLab, etc.) use separate domains for the
user content.
We need to discuss these potential legal issues with at least the Fedora
Legal Team.
Yeah, we need to clarify some legal issues around it for sure.
We could call it whatever makes the most sense, but I would expect this
to be user content with element handling issues like takedowns, etc.
