EmrysNet

The Immortal Network

Your private chat, voice and video, run by people you know.

EmrysNet is an invite-only chat server built on Matrix. Use it in your browser, or in any Matrix app. The one thing to remember is the server name.

Open EmrysNet in your browser

First time here

  1. Get your invite code

    EmrysNet is invite-only. The person who invited you will send you a code.

  2. Create your account in the browser

    Go to chat.emrysnet.org, choose Create account, and enter your invite code. Pick a username and a password of at least 12 characters.

  3. Save your recovery key

    Element will offer to set up a recovery key. Do it, and keep the key in your password manager. Your messages are end-to-end encrypted, and without this key a new phone or computer can't read your older messages.

  4. Sign in on your other devices

    Install an app below and sign in with your username and password, using emrysnet.org as the server.

Choose an app

We recommend Element. It has calls built in and is what we test with.

Browser

Any computer, nothing to install

Already set up for EmrysNet. Just sign in.

Computer

Windows, macOS and Linux

On the sign-in screen, select Edit next to the server and enter emrysnet.org.

Phone

Element X for iPhone and Android

When the app asks which server to use, change it and enter emrysnet.org.

Create your account in the browser first. Element X can sign you in, but it can't create new EmrysNet accounts yet.

Prefer a different app?

EmrysNet speaks Matrix, an open standard, so any Matrix app can connect. Browse the list of Matrix clients at matrix.org, then sign in with emrysnet.org as the server. Features like calls vary between apps.

Good to know

Members only

You can chat with people who have an EmrysNet account. It doesn't connect to other Matrix servers yet.

Calls built in

Voice and video calls work in Element on every device. Start one from the call button in any room.

Sharing files

You can send files up to 500 MB.
