XEP-0157 is a serversetting. Only if you able to set it you are owner of a server ? You can disco a server and if your nick match the reported nick, you are a administrator

moparisthebest
that's member, administrators are members of iteam (official XSF position)

You mean I'm not administrator of my own server or of this muc ? As I know MattJ use disco to fetch admins of "your" server and if matched you will be member in this muc. Maybe my english isn't good enough but I thought this was ask from Ellenor Malik or me9

https://xmpp.org/community/channels/operators has all this information without any of the speculation :)

But I still want to understand why the bot made me a member and if it could make spammers member similarly; the website doesn't say that. And as I said, I am no XMPP service operator.

The website explains membership in the FAQ

> Membership will be granted and revoked by channel moderators as they need, irrespective of whether a user is a server operator or not.

Ah, so it wasn't the bot? Well, sorry for annoying all.

I think we should make a place where we keep such "example" spam for "learning" purposes.

Calyx admin be like > Our server is not janky, their (Compliance) requirements are dumb and/or incompatible with the basic premise of the calyx xmpp service > Like they want us to store copies of messages on the server.. no, the whole point of our server is that we can't be asked for content and we can't read content > We set up our xmpp service as a proof-of-concept, not intending for it to be actually used to a huge degree. We thought that forcing OTR would make it so 99% of people couldn't figure out how to use it. Our point wasn't to make XMPP seems great, at the expense of the principles. > I personally think XMPP is as good as dead, but some people keep liking it so we keep the server up but it's not a top priority for us to continue innovating in > Maybe when signal detaches from phone numbers that can be the future ....there you have it, now you know ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Seems like they have no idea of what XMPP actually is at all. Just wanting to cover it or something. Why host something you don't really like and what you find is dead?
