please do not dm me

love y'all! but no shade, most of y'all don't know me.

thats not a slight to you, the reader, its just the truth.

so: unsolicited direct messages from people that i don't know, i would much prefer to have those conversations over email!

email gives me less of a headache and puts less pressure on me. i also don't have to deal with typing indicators, read receipts, or anything else when it comes to realtime communication.

i just like it a loooot more when it comes to messaging with muh internet people.

my emails include:

matt@mmatt.net (personal)

matt@teal.fm (teal.fm related inquiries)

matt@opn.haus (opn.haus related inquiries)

if dm better suits the conversation, then i'll move the convo over! email is just much better for convos with people I don't know.

but, like its urgent and i need to dm you right now

ok fine, here are the only places i'll check

Signal @mmatt.69

do not dm me on discord or bluesky.

no discord because it gets mixed in with my IRL connections

no bluesky because I don't like their chat interface lol

discord

i still like using discord servers for communication, and i'd honestly prefer most communication regarding bugs and features and stuff happen publicly so that more people can pitch in.

i'm very active in the @teal.fm discord, so make sure to join!!
