Finally, I have installed the Matrix, and it's working fine. As an admin, I have created two spaces and invited a few users -- made from the command line. Next, I have to work on more configs, such as email via SMTP (probably SMS, too), SSO, a bridge with Mastodon and Skype etc.

One of the most important things I am looking at is BOTs. At first, I have to figure out how to get alerts from GitLab/GitHub for their PRs, commits push etc., to a Matrix channel. One related library I have found is called "Maubot". But, wonder how others are doing it?

Please post your suggestions if anyone has done an integration like this or similar alerts. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you!

How joining a room could work:
- Enter the room name with instance info (#maubot:maunium.net) into the search bar and press enter

How it actually works:
- Press the "explore rooms" compass
- Press the drop-down "Matrix rooms (matrix.org)"
- Click "Add a new server ..."
- Add the server address ("server NAME" in the UI)
- Select the newly added server from the drop-down
- Enter the room name in the search bar
- Select the room
