Hi there,

I would like to host my own Synapse server, but I am not sure where to start.

I would like to be able to use Nginx Proxy Manager as the reverse proxy and I’ve read that you can use example.eu for the username, while actually using a subdomain like matrix.example.eu?

Is there some good documentation out there and what would people recommend? I would like to run it in a container on Proxmox, but Docker could also be an option?

    Why synapse?

    Its a good choice for max stability, but its by far the heaviest and most resource intense server out there, and probably overkill for a few user installation.

      What do you suggest? It’s only intended for a few users, but I’d still like to have the most features available to the users.

        Tuwunel, the sequel of conduwuit.

        Go with conduwuit today, then upgrade to tuwunel as soon as they release.

        There is a post about that in this community.
