 <h3>Note for Matrix users</h3>
 
 <p>
-There appears to be an issue with Matrix's IRC bridge that prevents
-Matrix users from joining #spectrum.  The workaround is as follows:
-
-<ol>
-  <li>Post <q>!join #spectrum</q> in your "Freenode IRC Bridge" chat.</li>
-  <li>Accept the invitation you are sent.</li>
-</ol>
+There appears to be an issue with Matrix's IRC bridged room that prevents
+Matrix users from joining the channel with the normal alias
+#freenode_#spectrum:matrix.org. There are the following workarounds:
+
+<ul>
+  <li>Join the room via it's internal name:
+    <kbd>/join !ZsIiqZmCTSWHpTQWaw:matrix.org</kbd>.
+  <li>Join the room via
+    <a href="https://matrix.to/#/!ZsIiqZmCTSWHpTQWaw:matrix.org">matrix.to link</a>.</li>
+  <li>Ask the bridges appservice to invite you to the room:
+    <kbd>/msg @appservice-irc:matrix.org !join #spectrum</kbd> and accept the invite.
+</ul>
 
 <p>
 If you experience this issue, kindly report it to the people who run
