Okay, I’ll quote the relevant parts about using Matrix web app: Accounts To chat in GNOME Matrix rooms, you first need to have a Matrix account. There are two ways to get one: 1. If you’re not a GNOME Foundation member, you can register for a free account at https://app.element.io/. [...] Once you have a Matrix account, you can login using a Matrix app, such as the Element web app. Rooms Once you are logged into Matrix, you can browse GNOME rooms and join the ones that are of interest to you. Some good ones to start with are: Room Topic #gnome:gnome.org General GNOME chat #gnome-hackers:gnome.org GNOME development discussion #newcomers:gnome.org Help for newcomers to the GNOME project Now you have that web app. > I’m not the only user who has this problem with evolution. Why hasn’t > it been fixed already? This is a rhetorical question, I’m not an Evolution developer. File bug reports, write to the mailing list, the forum, the chat rooms — I’ve suggested many ways to get help. -- Regards, Andrii 6741 02CA 7FF7 8AE0 9567 4FE2 A0CE 7A07 38B0 83C9
