Bluesky has a Matrix dev group (afaik it’s an official one) why not use that too in addition to Discord (or other comms channels)?

Unfortunately they declared they didn't have moderation bandwidth to maintain it as an official channel, and then apparently moved to Discord :(
I'm a little confused by this, how did switching to Discord reduce the load on their moderators?
i assume it didn’t. unfortunately, decentralised web projects don’t always do that well at having each others’ backs. (Matrix maintains a presence on Bluesky tho: https://bsky.app/profile/matrix.org)
Discord has better moderation tools than matrix
Welp, that’s unfortunate indeed.

P.S. Fantastic project (Matrix/Element)!
