Matrix 2.0: The Future of Matrix
It's quite disappointing that there's huge ongoing work around reinventing clients from scratch where the basic functionality of not ringing all my devices while I'm using only one of them [1] is still not there (bug open for years), despite it being a pretty simple fix.

Self hosting Rocket.chat
Basically element / matrix was supposed to be a replacement for Discord but it's missing a lot of the polish. I've been hosting an instance for a year and I haven't really seen any notable improvements. There's no GIF keyboard after almost 8 years, large rooms take forever to load history, you can't play videos directly inside of a link preview, read receipts don't always work, etc. Basically just open source jank. Overall though I really appreciate the fact that it's entirely self contained, open source and the federation part is nice.

Matrix 2.0: How we’re making Matrix go voom
Scalar (the integration manager) is not open source [1] (though there was some effort to reverse-engineer its protocol [2]); and some of their anti-abuse scripts aren't public [3]

[mautrix-telegram] What is the database I need to configure? Is that homeserver.db?
I'm trying to configure the mautrix-telegram bridge on my homeserver and I'm not sure what the database they are referring to in line 39 is (https://github.com/mautrix/telegram/blob/master/mautrix_telegram/example-config.yaml). The only thing I can imagine it being is homeserver.db on my Synapse server but I have no idea if it is supposed to be sqlite or postgres.
What are some alternatives?
When comparing element-meta and telegram you can also consider the following projects:
element-x-ios - Next generation Matrix client for iOS built with SwiftUI on top of matrix-rust-sdk.
tg-index - Python web app to index telegram chats and serve its files for download over HTTP.
