Matrix-Libera IRC Bridge Temporary Shutdown, a Retrospective (2023)
I did the same except federated and it's pretty easy if you have some experience with Ansible and Docker. This repo has a great Ansible playbook that will set up the whole thing for you on whatever VM or VPS you point it at:

Ask HN: Recommendations for an alternative native chat client? (Slack, Discord)
As some others have said, matrix is great at this.
I use this ansible playbook to set it all up: https://github.com/spantaleev/matrix-docker-ansible-deploy it supports slack and discord too.
You can also use beeper which is hosted if you don't want to self host. They employ one of the major bridge Devs so they know what they're doing.
There's also element one from the Devs of matrix but they don't support all services you're looking for.

You could maybe check out this URL about setting up Oracle free tier but it could be outdated. I just recommend using the Matrix Ansible Playbook

How to access the synapse-admin web ui?
I installed my home server via the ansible playbook, gave myself admin privileges and then enabled the api in the playbook. The playbook sets up the server with a reverse proxy and im geting an error 'NetworkError when attempting to fetch resource' when i enter in my credentials.

The Home Server Journey - 4: Enter The Matrix
As any open protocol, the Matrix specification has a number of different implementations, most famously Synapse (Python) and Dendrite (Go). I've been, however, particularly endeared to Conduit, a lightweight Matrix server written in Rust. Here I'll show the deployment configuration as recommended by its maintainer, Timo Kösters:
- The Tailscale Universal Docker Mod
- Conduit: Simple, fast and reliable chat server powered by matrix

Databag – tiny self-hosted federated messenger for the decentralized web
Matrix already has key-based identity in the works at https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals/blob/keg... (and implemented in Dendrite at https://github.com/matrix-org/dendrite/pulls?q=is%3Apr+is%3A...). Matrix is set up to let folks go wild and change fundamentals like this; basically every Matrix Spec Change (MSC) is a small fork, which then gets merged into the main spec if it can be proven to work well in the wild.

What's the easiest way to use Matrix and add matrix-bridges for Messenger, Instagram, and Telegram etc.
I really hope that Dendrite is getting more traction and maybe there's an OIDC solution for Matrix one day.

Can Dendrite run on Kubernetes?
Yes there is an official helm chart. https://github.com/matrix-org/dendrite/releases/tag/helm-dendrite-0.11.2

Have any of you used a decentralized messenger before?
This is what the Matrix team is developing Dendrite for. To have a feature-complete yet small server software. But it's still in beta.
