We just switched my podcast community from Discord to Matrix and I've spent the last two weeks onboarding people.

I wrote these as a veteran Discord user just delving into Matrix and tried my best to frame things in a very Discord-centric way to help people understand the concepts in Matrix. It seemed to help some people.

Anyway, posting here in case they're of use to anyone else.

I'm stuck on integration managers. Are they even still a thing? Most references I can find link to dead projects. Also after so many years, there's only like, four bridges?

I almost never see it used in the public federation; it's mostly a corporate feature. Also the default integration manager is proprietary.

https://matrix.org/bridges. You can host yourself, otherwise there's Beeper, and certain public hosted bridges also exist; see also https://joinmatrix.org/guide/features/#all-about-bridges.
