Our community chat is available on Matrix, Discord, and IRC. Pick whichever is most comfortable for you.

Matrix: The main communication channel used by Ubuntu communities worldwide.
Discord: Popular among many open source and tech communities; easy to join if you already use Discord.
IRC: The long-time chat channel for Ubuntu communities. We recommend Matrix as the preferred option going forward.
