Chat and Discussion

Matrix Chat

Matrix is an instant messaging (IM) platform where you can talk to Ubuntu community members and developers in an open setting. Many Ubuntu projects have public rooms where you can ask for help. You can see all our public rooms in the Ubuntu Space. We also have a dedicated room for support.

If you’re new to Matrix, you can easily create an account by following the guide Getting started with Matrix.

IRC Chat

IRC, also known as Internet Relay Chat, allows real-time text messaging and is arranged in a series of rooms or channels. Each channel has a particular topic where members can communicate with one another in an open setting. If you have a question or need assistance, the Ubuntu Community has a number of IRC channels you can join.

Visit the IRC Channel List for a catalog of the Ubuntu Community channels.
