If what you have to say isn’t important enough to write then it definitely isn’t important enough to read.

It is my understanding that all of the ballooning DB is room states, something that you can’t really prune. What exactly are you pruning from the DB?

No, that makes sense.

I see a lot of people disable it because they assume it’s inherently insecure. Just wanted to check if that was the reason.

Why disable IPv6?

I have now, but I don’t see what “there are no good alternatives” does for the conversation when some of us are looking to get off Discord now.

I agree with all of this except that his standard seems to be perfection, when a lot of us are not looking for a Signal alternative, but a Discord alternative, which it is. It’s still better than Discord.

The Matrix Foundation and everything under it has systemic problems that they haven’t even acknowledged in the 5+ years I’ve been eyeing Matrix, and I will not fucking defend them, but Matrix is the best Discord alternative we have unless you’re willing to hitch your bet on a single sysadmin hosting Stoat or whatever else.

I’ve been in enough communities that implode because one critical person got his finger stuck in his ass that I refuse to migrate to a service that isn’t federated, and XMPP kinda sucks, so Matrix it is.

Matrix is pretty lightweight if you use something like Conduit or its spinoffs for a homeserver instead of Synapse, which is very heavy.

I look at this list and cry a little bit inside. I can’t imagine having to maintain all of this as a hobby.

All of you bragging about 100+ containers, please may in inquire as to what the fuck that’s about? What are you doing with all of those?

Mautrix supports puppeteering your Discord account, so it doesn’t matter if your friends won’t join matrix.

I am currently doing this and it works well enough that I can see myself not opening Discord again, but it isn’t perfect. For that reason alone, Matrix wins in my book.

e: I am using Conduit for Matrix homeserver

You are just not going to stop pushing this, are you? I’m glad you’ve learned not to associate your platform with crypto, but I still don’t trust you and I don’t want to reiterate how this WILL become a childporn haven when you don’t have wide-spanning moderation.

Also your SSL cert is expired and the website is broken besides.

I’m sorry if I offended your favorite company or whatever this is about

I’m gonna make a small reach here but are you willing to defend Andy Yen’s pro-trump stance? If not, why are you giving Nanook shit for saying fuck Proton?

a priority inbox without all the pesky notification clutter.

Being able to sort incoming aliases doesn’t address this, which was the only problem OP was having, but whatever man. Use Proton; I’ll be here when they crash and burn like every other fuckin company that has had their business model before them.

Proton has successfully shilled itself as the go-to alternative when they’re just another shitass company. They’re better than Google, but like congratulations on passing the lowest bar, I guess?

Notice how he recommended Proton mail without addressing any of the issues OP was having. Blind shilling. If this was Reddit, I’d genuinely think he was paid for it, or a bot.

You shouldn’t run a honeypot for any other reason than fun and research, but if you’re into either of those, go for it!

nothing else behaves that way.

This is quite wrong, but it doesn’t matter, because if your setup is insecure, then you’ll find out sooner or later anyway. The hacking space is pretty much automated at this point, which is why my honeypot works at all.

Do you also think that anyone who puts Anubis in front of their website is getting the attention of anonymous illuminati master-hackers because it causes their bots to waste a few processing cycles? Tarpitting is no different. If your bot is written poorly, it will get stuck on even legitimate pages.

It does not; tarpitting is a normal practice.

No one sitting on 0days are gonna waste them on randos, and my setup is secure besides. I’ve been doing this, and worse, for years.

lol

Some day I’ll write an article on the selfhosted community

I don’t have any solution for you, but I’m just adding some information to the conversation; I use Gonic as a server and Ultrasonic as a client and it does not have any issues displaying umlaut or any other special characters.
