Does anyone use this? What are some good free speech Matrix instances? If none exist I am thinking of running one that only bans blatantly illegal content in the US.
good luck scaling past 10 users
>>106845054All of these fucking things seem to be run in Germany and everything is illegal there.>>106845060I haven't read this at all. I did my research and it would seem a decent server with at least 64GB of RAM, 1 TB nvme for database, and another 4 TB HDD or images etc would be fine. At least 1gbit connection. If it got more massive than 5,000 users i would have to upgrade though.
>>106845054I do. But I don't really chat that much anyway. I could never get into the whole chatroom thing.
>>106845122I just want an alternative to discord where I don't have to worry about my account getting banned for being politically incorrect or etc.As I said above though, all of the servers seem to be run in places like Germany where everything is illegal.
>>106845096ah yes tourist take picture of german architechture illegal if you believe internet
>>106845147Pretty sure loli is illegal there as well as "hate speech", bub.
>>106845096basically every TOR node outside of the US is german servers.they're not going to seize servers because these networks are used by government agencies too. and add the fact that these servers are often universities, so they have actual plausible deniability
>>106845054i'm using unredacted.org
>>106845523Yeah, it looks like I will need to run my own. Le sigh. https://unredacted.org/services/si/matrix/>muh fictional illustrations>muh violenceSounds like discord, why not just use them?
>>106845717god damn it they added this recentlywhen i signed up they didn't have any rules except "nothing illegal"
>>106845054I decided they area too lame (anti speech) to use.Also anyway it's heavy bloated and slow shit, last time I checked.
Element is basically Skype again except owned by the star of david country. So, better than Discord, but still pretty shady.Just use IRC, dude.
>>106846962>Just use IRC, dude.Unserious reply
>>106845152wrong again
>>106845054I only really use it for stuff that's not allowed on discord, it's a decent alternative but it's so fucking slow
I use it to talk to my family. They hate me for making them use it but they can get fucked really
>>106845054How can they ban anything if the chats/messages are supposed to be encrypted and only accesible to members of the chat group
>>106847606BasedThis is what I did with all my friends. Discord is for faggots
>>106847638>Based>This is what I did with all my friends. Discord is for faggotsso is matrix.irc is kinda based, but really too lacking for many uses
>>106845054Anyone do horizontal scaling with element?
>>106847665>Anyone do horizontal scaling with element?wide faggots, I guess?
>>106847662discordtroon detected.
>>106847636Room name, description, picture and member list are not encrypted.
>>106847674>>>discord is for faggots>>[yes, and] so is matrix>discordtroon detected.low reading comprehension. american or indian (maybe both)
>>106847662IRC is just a meme at this point. Most tech groups who used it have moved on to better chat platforms anyway. I see Zulip mentioned as the place to chat for a lot of projects these days.
>>106847673
>>106847687My matrix server has a strict "no homosexuals allowed" rule. I can enforce this because I own the server.
>>106847764Wouldn't want anyone stealing your spotlight
>>106847796Don't be bitter, there are plenty of more progressive matrix servers for you to join.
>>106845054Last time I checked, child porn peddlers, drug and arms dealers used it to spam pretty intensely.
>>106848211>drug and arms dealers used it to spam>spamdo you know what that word means?
>>106845054just run your own. it's not that hard.
>>106848524He's probably talking about spam messages in random rooms.
Xmpp won.
>>106845096>All of these fucking things seem to be run in Germany and everything is illegal there.Literally just don't call for death of person or group of people, it is not that hard.
>>106848728This Germany isn't that bad, not like it's a seventh world authoritarian shithole that raids people in the middle of the night for calling them a penis.https://www.thetimes.com/world/article/willygate-exposes-german-minister-to-ridicule-72sm053h2
>>106848777wait till you hear about what real third world countries are like
>>106848850Yeah, just outright ignoring how Saudi Arabia has been on an execution streak recently.
>>106845054I use it. The grapheneOS channels had to be nuked and recreated 3 times in the last couple years because of spammers. Almost all of the discussion is done over bridges to discord.If you want to get random internet people to discuss shit it has bad retention. If you want to host for people you know irl use xmpp. I use nextcloud talk but it's more like teams than discord.Simplex chat is also probably worth a mention but it glows a little.
>>106848850>>106848897You mean like locking people in a jail cell where they magically catch fire with unexplained injuries like a broken nose and injuries on his neck without anyone noticing anything and everyone getting acquitted of all charges afterwards? Well that was a lie, they did notice the fire alarm and promptly, diligently ignored it and the subsequent ones.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Death_of_Oury_Jalloh
>>106848989>equating one off individual misconduct with state sanctioned executionsRetarded shill
>>106849017>one off>individual misconductAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHere's the wiki article "Incidents involving the police in Dessau-Roßlau after 1990" or to make it exceptionally clear for your dumb ass: This isn't even a "one off" case in this fucking specific police station never mind the whole country.https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vorf%C3%A4lle_bei_der_Polizei_in_Dessau-Ro%C3%9Flau_nach_1990>everyone got acquitted of everything multiple times in different courts>new inquiries after new evidence emerged got shitcanned by the state prosecutor in 2017 AND 2018>not state sanctionedYeah you are a retarded shill but for future reference my nigger: We don't sign our posts here.
>>106849092Don't care. You're not american, your opinion doesnt matter.
>>106845054catgirl.cloud is good
>>106845054Mine :)population: meregistration: closedstability: not guaranteeduptime: 1 weekloli allowed: yes
>>106848920>bad retentionI really don't get why people want to support Discord with how shitty their policies are and how easy it is to just get your account nuked for being in the wrong cord.It's oppressive as fuck at this point. Also, paying for fucking emojis and "server boosts". It's fucking beyond mega gay.It's infuriating that people are so cucked these days.
>>106847674kek'd at picrel lol
>>106849986if you're on discord still you don't belong on /g/
>>106847674Based Arathorn. No other chat protocol or app has such a passionate leader. Yeah Matrix is far from perfect, but he's trying to do every single thing a person could possibly request. Federation, E2EE, FOSS, Chat Interoperability, so much more I'm probably forgetting. And on a shoe string budget too. All while whiny faggots write blog posts about mild nitpicks.
>>106847674what did Matthew mean by this?
>>106845054it works but its a major pain in the ass to setup.
>>106849679Im going to hack it
>>106852162NOOOOOOO
>>106845054This app is janky a fuck and the voice calls are SHIT.And I cant think of anything it does better than Signal other than look vaguely like discord.
