If by chatting about “technology,” you mean “bragging about running Linux on a 15 year old salvaged computer,” then yes.

I don't brag. I inform. If you choose to admire me for it, it's your own responsibility.

You even brag about bragging, deceivingly.

I think they mean like IRC, Matrix, or Discord: real-time chat rather than asynchronous. They may mean such a thing integrated into a Lemmy client, but it's pretty unclear in the original question.

I meant a place to make online friends to chat about technology and other stuff.

I might check out matrix.

That's less about the app and more about the community I would say. I get into those kinds of discussions on freenode (irc) but also on some old school web forums. I'm not hip enough for Matrix but I guess it has some users too.
