> Update: we have created the channel #gfx-wr-glitch on Matrix
Funnily, this alias is incomplete and therefore not enough to join. A room ID might have been enough, but just an alias without a server part is worthless, a bit like someone left an e-mail adress as gfx-wr-glitch@, without specifying the rest.
I've successfully joined trough #gfx-wr-glitch:mozilla.org, (roomid is !qaAtjMWizEgMcVSbNH:mozilla.org, no alias on matrix.org) and told them so.
Edit: they fixed it. I wonder how often that happens with those new to Matrix?
They run their own server, just like they ran their own IRC server before, and at first didn't really consider the need to make that explicit. I doubt there was any misunderstanding of the tech, or that the channel names are per-server.
