-# Messaging
+# Leave me a message
-Views and works on chat, presence, carriage of messages,
-and other issues related to messaging.
+I love to chat - both in real time and by exchanging messages.
+
+Here is how you can leave me a message...
+
+
+## Shout
+
+You are most welcome to reach me publicly,
+where others can listen in and potentially join our conversation.
+
+If you wanna ask or share something
+which is potentially relevant for others too,
+then better do it in public.
+
+On [Matrix][] I hang out in the chatrooms
+[#debian-matrix:matrix.org][https://matrix.to/#/#debian-matrix:matrix.org]
+and [#community-pureos:talk.puri.sm][https://matrix.to/#/#community-pureos:talk.puri.sm],
+among others.
+
+On [Jabber][] I hang out in the chatroom
+[openhardware][https://magicbroccoli.de/i/#openhardware@conference.magicbroccoli.de?join]
+([more info][https://search.jabber.network/search?q=openhardware],
+among others.
+
+On [IRC][] I hang out in the channels
+[#tinker][ircs://irc.oftc.net:6697/tinker],
+[#debian][ircs://irc.oftc.net:6697/debian]
+and [#debian-devel][ircs://irc.oftc.net:6697/debian-devel]
+at [OFTC.net](https://oftc.net/),
+and [#olimex][ircs://irc.libera.chat:6697/olimex]
+at [libera.chat](https://libera.chat/),
+among others.
+
+On email I follow the mailinglists
+[debian-devel][https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/],
+[debian-freedombox][https://lists.debian.org/debian-freedombox/],
+[design-devel][https://alioth-lists.debian.net/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/design-devel],
+[blend-tinker-devel][https://alioth-lists.debian.net/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/blend-tinker-devel],
+and [pkg-sugar-devel][https://alioth-lists.debian.net/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pkg-sugar-devel]
+at Debian,

+at Goldelico,
+and [public-rww][https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-rww/]
+at W3C,
+among others.
+
+
+## Whisper
+
+You can also reach me discretely.
+
+Please then mention explicitly your reasion(s) for discretion:
+That helps me respect your secrets/anonymity etc.
+
+If you reason for discretion is to not "disturb" a larger crowd with your "noise",
+then please reconsider:
+Generally we hang out in public rooms _because_ we want some related "noise".
+
+On [Matrix][]
+I am [@jonas:matrix.jones.dk][https://matrix.to/#/@jonas:matrix.jones.dk]
+at my own system,
+and [@jonas.smedegaard:talk.puri.sm][https://matrix.to/#/@jonas.smedegaard:talk.puri.sm]

-## Good old email
-
-If you cannot be bothered with change, then simply email me!
-
-My email address is <dr@jones.dk> like always :-)
-
-## Simple webchat
-
-If you are in a hurry and do not use Jabber yet, then try use my
-[Simple Groupchat](https://chat.jones.dk/).
-
-Use guest login if you are not a user at jones.dk.
-
-## Proper Jabber
-
-Jabber is similar to email: You need 1) an account somewhere, 2) some
-client application setup to use that account, and 3) the address of
-those you want to connect.
-
-1. Register an account at e.g. Indonesian http://jabin.org/ or
- [some](http://list.jabber.at/)
- [other](http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Community_Jabber_Servers)
- [server](http://xmpp.net/).
-2. Install a Jabber client program...:
- * on Windows try install Gajim from <http://gajim.org/>.
- * on smartphone try app from <https://imo.im/>.
- * on Ubuntu try use the Me menu in top right corner.
- * on Debian try install Pidgin: aptitude install pidgin.
-3. Invite me as your friend/buddy: my Jabber ID is jonas@jones.dk
-4. Tell your friends to do the same! :-D
-
-## Geeky IRC
-
-Many computer geeks hang out on IRC. I find it ugly and clumsy to use,
-but most of my techie friends are there, so I recommend going there to
-discuss technical matters.
-
-On [OFTC](http://www.oftc.net/oftc/) my nickname is jonas, and I often
-hang out at the chatroom #debian-devel (plus a few others).
## Why not Facebook?
Facebook is a closed system: all activities happen at one central place.
-Email, Jabber and IRC are open protocols, exchanging between many Free
-systems (and some non-free ones as well).
