With all of the #discord news last week, I've been looking at self-hosting a #matrix server. I ordered a thin-client and we'll be trying things out. It's going to be a tough sell to get my friends on matrix, they like the ease that discord provides- and everything is already set up! why move?
L'instance #matrix underworld est maintenant sur #Debian #Trixie et #Postgresql 17 🎉
Sto lavorando per riorganizzare lo space del LIG (Linux Italian Gaming) su Matrix, cercando di rendere lo spazio più accogliente per tutti.

Gibt's coole #Matrix Server?
So in case you ever have one #Matrix client in the login process, don't start a verification.
I had this:
FluffyChat: Logged in (verified)
Element Web: Logged in but stuck before entering recovery key
Element X: Trying to log in and verify
1 - Element X requests verification
2 - FluffyChat and Element Web (?!) ask if they should accept
3 - Accept in FluffyChat
4 - Element Web opens verification window (?!?), FluffyChat waits endlessly
5 - Verify
6 - Both Elements now stuck.
Total chaos.
Build anything interesting over the weekend?
I experimented with the conduit matrix chat software (in a jail, of course) and so far it's simple and works as advertised.
What did you discover?
Bon, pour continuer la discussion sur les clients Matrix :
Cinny est le meilleur presque son début, et il est toujours de mieux en mieux à chaque ré-essai.
Deux points qui me chagrinent :
* je veux mes bulles de messages réparties à gauche et droite pour différencier mes messages de ceux des autres,
* Les messages des threads ne sont pas séparés de la conversation. C’est abscons.

Le capitalisme ne peut apprendre de ses erreurs, car pour lui ce n'en sont pas.
Exploiter les données pour de la pub et pousser à la consommation illimitée dans un monde matériel fini est consubstantiel à ce qu'il est : un ogre insatiable qui nous fait vivre dans une #matrix où l'illusion de l'immortalité, de l'infini et de l'individualisme sont poussés chaque jour à leur paroxysme.

Damn, I only recently found out (after watching a very interesting video on YouTube) that in the recent 4K re-release of “The Matrix,” they changed the color grading, and the picture resembles old films from the 60s. It turns out that it was based on a rare theatrical version, which was released in this format and shown in only 150 cinemas. I highly recommend checking it out, it looks unique

Something I hate about #Matrix is room updates. They bring the spirit of breaking changes and forced updates to human conversations.

I just got my band set up on a #selfhosted #Matrix / #Element. This is controversial for a number of reasons - but I'm comfortable doing the grunt work to make it happen in a way I can live with.
For my non-techie friends coming over, it's close enough and they picked it right up. Our needs are basic and are covered.
I realise this will not fit everyone's needs, and it's a sprawling project choked with #enshittification at the moment, but if you can sift down through it all, you might find something that works. (Not very encouraging - I know. I'm sorry - it's a little dire out there.)
Another alternative that I run is #xmpp. It's less like discord than most Matrix clients, but it's fast and light - time tested and has e2ee.
There is also #NextCloud Talk. I don't use it much, but it works as well as xmpp or matrix in my experience.
