I too host a Matrix homeserver, but I chose not to use the central name server when I setup. So you cannot discover me on Matrix. I might later setup my own name server as others do.
Mastodon does not have an official central name server, but people have setup unofficial ones that people can choose to list themselves in such as https://fedi.directory/ https://fedi.directory/ and twitodon.com.
- jacooper 4y agoI'm not using one either. But matrix shows users from rooms you have joined, automatically. Unlike mastodon which even if you reply or like a "toot" you stills don't show up in search or the federated timeline. Its kind of ridiculous honestly.
- kornhole 4y agoI recall seeing discovery features on the list of developments along with federated groups. A lot is under active development. https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/issues https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/issues
- jacooper 4y agoThis issue is known since the start of Mastodon. I won't hold my breath, it really looks like not a priority for gargon.
