Matrix Configuration #

Matrix is an open protocol, meaning that you can use any client you wish to connect to a server. You can find a list here, finding the clients themselves on the app store or their respective websites. We recommend Element, as it is the most maintained and feature-complete. We also have a self-hosted web client available here.
Register an account with the registration link that has been given to you. If you don’t have one, ask the admin to give one to you.
With the client open, change the homeserver from ‘matrix.org’ to ‘matrix.deadbios.net’; then login with your username and password.
Use the ’explore public rooms’ feature to find rooms. Spaces are the equivalent of discord servers, and rooms are like text channels or DMs.
To set up sticker packs, follow this guide on the desktop version of Element (if using another client, contact Bitwise; apparently, Nheko supports stickers locally). Once setup, the packs will work on your phone:

Here is the code for the widget. Replace the two instances of USERNAME with your matrix username (case sensitive):

{
    "stickerpicker": {
        "content": {
            "type": "m.stickerpicker",
            "url": "https://deadbios.net/web/?theme=$theme",
            "name": "Stickerpicker",
            "creatorUserId": "@USERNAME:deadbios.net",
            "data": {}
        },
        "sender": "@USERNAME:deadbios.net",
        "state_key": "stickerpicker",
        "type": "m.widget",
        "id": "stickerpicker"
    }
}
