Description

Currently, ecosystem projects can only define a single support room. This works for most projects, but larger projects (for example, multi‑platform clients) may need platform‑specific rooms. Because of this limitation, Element X currently links only to the iOS room, which is not the best user experience.

See: https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix.org/blob/93b60f42ad708253f5fa7f6c67f577ff4edf178e/content/ecosystem/clients/element-x.md?plain=1#L9

Research direction

Start with content/ecosystem/clients/element-x.md at the referenced lines and inspect how its support room is represented and rendered. Trace the surrounding ecosystem project data to determine where multiple platform-specific rooms are defined, then verify that each configured room appears for the appropriate project.
