Hey HN, I'm involved with this project, glad you found it interesting! Keep in mind it's still a _very_ early stage and not in a usable state. A lot of work in progress but also plenty of opportunities if you want to contribute.

I probably won't contribute, but I want to extend some useless but genuine moral support.

It's much appreciated

Glad you use matrix and not discord!

Has anyone figured out if it's possible to join these rooms from a federated Matrix account?

[notpushkin]

Just joined from :matrix.org. Haven’t tried other servers but should be fine I think.

Why did you all choose to fork?

[hnarn]

Because Hashicorp changed the license. It’s been all over the (tech) news so it’s easily googlable.

[Hnrobert42]

Thanks. Do you usually Google every question you ask in a forum?

[hnarn]

Yes. It's usually a lot faster than waiting for someone else to google it for me.

Generally I would agree, but in this case, I was asking the person directly. I thought it would open an interesting discussion. I didn’t realize it would only result in a reprimand. <shrug>

Can’t say for everyone else, I personally see this as an opportunity to have a version of Vault that’s a bit less centered around the needs of a single organization.
