They're visible in Kbin's UI, but not Lemmy's.
OP is a lemmygrad admin trolling.
How long until an article comes out saying it's mandatory to wear shorts in the DPRK?
Is Soygon of Akuck on Fox News now?
They work when you colon autocomplete them, but selecting them from the picker seems broken.
Matrix isn't integrated into lemmy: if you want to have an account for that, you'll have to make one on a matrix server. Matrix.org is the mainstream one. I see you're a hexbear user, so genzedong.xyz may also interest you.
The only "integration" at the moment is a UI shortcut for messaging an associated matrix account.
It's a completely different service/protocol. Activitypub (the protocol lemmy and similar fedi software uses to federate) is not well suited for encrypted communications. The main motivation is maintaining privacy.
Send message sends a DM over lemmy. It is possible for instance admins to see these.
If you have a matrix account listed on your profile, send secure message will DM you over Matrix instead.
Hexbear has extreme posting power and a cohesive site culture like 4chan does, but unlike 4chan, the usersbase isn't made up of weird misanthropes.
I think it may be a Whiskey Pickle alt.
