Really?
Well, thats first.


Yes. To complain seems to be a human basic right…
If you don’t want privileged people to complain, you have a problem with envy that’s all.
Love this… Will take a spin for my OpenAstra


TubeArchivist rules
If that’s hard, good luck with synapse then.
Continuwuity… Don’t use synapse, too bloated.
Continuwuity was never discontinued, the note was for Conduwuit, I forgot to remove it after updated the article.
Yes need to fix that wording its a leftover, done.
I also installed tuwunnel after conduwuit death. Moved to Continuwuity because of the community vs corporate sponsorship.
I don’t keep an eye on who is ahead, but I want to be sure I don’t have to migrate in the future so I don’t care for development speed, rather continued support and what if tuwunnel company money runs out?
Yes both element and elementx and actually any matrix client. That’s the beauty of having standards
But its a pain because all clients from matrix. Org will push you to matrix. Org and need manual taps&clicks to select a different server when you sign up the first time. A bit annoying IMHO and maybe even fraudolent.


That is undisclosed but check the github page, last time I did, it was a one person job and he clearly wrote he got corporate money t do that


Tuwunnel is a corporate-sponsored successor to Conduwuit.
I prefer Continuwuity which is a non for profit successor to Conduwuit.
Beside this, they are probably mostly the same


Forget about synapse and the “official” method. Install Continuwuity a matrix server written in rust, much much more efficient than synapse.
I took some notes while installing it here https://wiki.gardiol.org/doku.php?id=matrix%3Aconduwuit
I didn’t use docker but directly installation is very easy, it’s a single executable.
Set a custom private DNS with your dns
I share your concerns with the matrix organization. Most of the other concerns on that article don’t apply to a private instance with only just less than a handful of users who anyway live together or share more than an online existence.
Conduit has been dead in development for years now. Conduwuit was the successor, then some drama got it shut down and reborn (new maintainers) as Continuwuity.
Conduit saw no up grades in years IIRC and its basically abandoned I guess.
DOH goes over port 443 using https, impossible to block (unless you want to blacklist all possible URLs that might serve DNS) so cannot be redirected at network level, like with classic DNS, and uses SSL encryption so cannot be “sniffed” and redirected.
In other words: say goodbye to ad blockers based on DNS like pihole or adguard
While it seems good for your privacy, it’s a dream for Google and such, where PiHoles and such DNS blockers will be useless…
Well, I have seen so many classic coders write shitty unmaintainable and insecure code that I don’t think that NOT being vibe coded mean anything.
