New Official Blender Developers Chat

1
By on Blender Development

The Blender Foundation just opened an official chat server for developers on chat.blender.org.

The chat runs on Element, the open source and encrypted chat server that works with the Matrix protocol. This ensures a high degree of privacy - although the chat does require users to log in with their Blender ID to view channel activity.

Some channels go beyond development; for example there are channels for Blender Teachers and Flamenco too.

One thing to note is that chat retention is set to 30 days. Anything older than that will be lost. This makes sense as chat media focus on the real-time aspect of communities, but not on any kind of knowledge retention. Any conversation or documentation that requires longer-term availability should happen on the developers forum.

I have a LONG history with Blender - I wrote some of the earliest Blender tutorials, worked for Not a Number and helped run the crowdfunding campaign that open sourced Blender (the first one on the internet!). I founded BlenderNation in 2006 and have been editing it every single day since then ;-) I also run the Blender Artists forum and I'm Head of Community at Sketchfab.
