I didn't realize that Spaces would finally allow for this! The public room directory is a horrible user experience today and really turns people off. I'm so glad that your team recognizes that too!
So is the idea that each Matrix server can have their own root Space that they direct people to? Kinda like an "instance timeline" in Mastodon?
- Akronymus 5y agoSpaces also allow for pretty nice access controls. So that you can prevent most cases of bots just collecting all history. And because you can nest spaces, it also allows basically ad hoc organizing. For example, on a open source project you could have a top space for it itself, then subspaces for contributors, users, code reviewers and such. In the code reviewers space you could then have one where confidental issues can be discussed.
