    Fingers crossed for fluxer but we’ve yet to see if it’s self hosting meets basic requirements yet like no outside server contact, no centralised accounts etc

    Does someone self host this ? I’m fidgeting with the idea to run this or Element for one or two friends group, how this affects your PC and your internet speed ?

      I’m hosting fluxer and matrix, but fluxer is fantastic. One consideration, for some reason the documentation doesn’t tell you that you need to go to the admin page, create a voice region, and a voice server, to actually use the voice chat that’s part of the guide.

      If you want a mature ecosystem, try out matrix, although it is much harder to figure out how to host it.

      If you want something that’s intended to be a perfect discord replacement, go with fluxer, they did an amazing job with the self hosting guide.

        I’m in the middle of perfecting a guide for one type of Matrix server, based on my own experience (Proxmox LXC, Continuwuity, token based registration), will update this with a link (placeholder comment)

      I’m holding off on Fluxer until they decide how they’re going to implement federation, since the designs they’ve communicated publicly so far have all seemed like they prioritize siloing and putting excessive load on self-hosted nodes.
      Their first proposed solution would’ve required each self-hosted server to be able to handle every user on every other server in the network - a proposal which they’ve since scrubbed from their page.
      The latest proposal I can find at least speaks about aggregating connections through the users server, so it’s not as insane (Only requiring each self-hosted server to be able to handle requests from every other server on the network). But it still forbids intelligent caching, and instead seems to consider recommending the use of cloudflare to reduce the load from their design to be a good solution.

    Wow, this is the first I’ve seen the reduction of Oracle free tier - will dig into that before I get an unexpected bill!

    I’m going to have to give Ignis Note-Taking app a try. Skimming the github it appears to be a front end for Obsidian that runs in your browser. You don’t need VNC to access it. That’s worth checking out. The Linuxserver Obsidian version uses VNC to admin and take notes which was always a point of contention.
