edit: I like matrix.io more than discord. I will try to stick with matrix.io but yeah, discord has more people in it though :(

I have many general questions I would like to throw at people about Linux, these don't require the attention of a post. So, are there any good Linux chat rooms out there? Discord is ok, Telegram or any other open-source or partially open-source service with good interaction is better.

rant: I don't realize why some people hate Telegram so much, it's far better than whatsapp and more widespread than other Chatrooms and Servers. And I like the privacy I get on Telegram. I can send a message to anyone without them knowing who I am! That's amazing!

Thank you for your help!

thank you I did that. But I prefer services which I can keep a log of unfortunately

??? You can keep a log using IRC. Most clients support logging, check the settings in your client.

What if I turn off my computer? Please don't start your response with buying a VPS

You can install an IRC bouncer like ZNC on any device that would normally stay online, such as a spare Android phone, or even your router.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
