Is Conduit (Matrix server) sustainable, do some of you host it?

I plan to host Conduit for my friends and family. Even if I invite absolutely everyone there would be no more than 50 users, max. But would it actually sustain and work, as it is not yet on 1.0 is a question. I do not want to host Synapse as I had bad time with it's (lack of) garbage collecting. We do not plan to join very big...

Sorry to hijack — does my server name need a tld at the end? I’ve received both a yes and a no thus far. My server name currently has no tld but I’m not sure if that is what is preventing me from federating, or if no tld is just bad practice or something.

I’m still trying to understand this. I have “example.tld” but when configuring the server name, just used “example”, no tld

You’re saying that my server name in fact needs to be the full “example.tld”?

Thanks for the help.

In the mariushosting tutorial I followed a tld was not used. https://mariushosting.com/how-to-install-synapse-on-your-synology-nas/ (Step 14)

Same for the conduit tutorial https://mariushosting.com/how-to-install-conduit-on-your-synology-nas/ (Step 12)

Is it that difficult to run Mastodon over Docker?

I am used to simple things running on Docker (Jellyfin, Nextcloud, etc.) I am looking at running my own personal Mastodon instance (maybe share it with a few friends and family), but I like using Docker. Looking at install guides, the steps required seem to be much harder than just editing docker-compose.yml and running the...

I haven’t looked, are those requirements not included in the compose?

TheRealCharlesEames ,

So if I wanted to host my own mastodon for friends and family but found the installation process too difficult, does that make this the best route forward for me?

Sorry to hijack — does Matrix have support for voice channels now? I know it has support for voice calls, but I’d like to just join a designated voice channel and allow other members to join as they please.

How to Figure Out What Your Car Knows About You (and Opt Out of Sharing When You Can) (www.eff.org)

Cars collect a lot of our personal data, and car companies disclose a lot of that data to third parties. It’s often unclear what’s being collected, and what's being shared and with whom. A recent New York Times article highlighted how data is shared by G.M. with insurance companies, sometimes without clear knowledge from the...

I just went back to RSS after some years and it’s just as good as I remember it.

Thank you to Arc for reminding me how much I enjoy browsing the internet and its many unique pages — these soulless generated results are the opposite of what I want.

No offense but I’m not sure you read or understood the main point of the article — there’s not much of an internet for users if there’s no incentive to supply it with content.
