Synapse VS fosscord

I think thats the exactly the point. It depends on how you use it. Matrix is a protocol at first. Your own Community-Matrix-Server without federation is perfect, with federation it could leak some data, depending on what you are doing (but yes, you should be aware of). For the profile data there are options to limit the „leakage“ a bit: https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/blob/develop/docs/sample_config.yaml

NAT is not at all recommended by matrix, https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/blob/develop/docs/turn-howto.md

I found this: https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/6395

Once you have the home server set up and configured (not covered here because it's a process), clone the bridge repo (for instance mautrix-signal and follow the instructions.

Is there a way to change the domain name of my existing Matrix Synapse chat Server? Renewal for my domain name is expensive. I'd rather just buy a cheap domain name every year and replace with my new domain name. The only info I could find was this from several years ago: https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/3031

ssl_certificate /etc/letsencrypt/live/example.com/fullchain.pem; ssl_certificate_key /etc/letsencrypt/live/example.com/privkey.pem; location / { # If not within location, it would always be executed (return does not work like in programming languages) return 444; } # https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/blob/master/INSTALL.md#client-well-known-uri location /.well-known/matrix/client { default_type application/json; add_header Access-Control-Allow-Origin *; # To work in browser based clients, the file must be served with the appropriate Cross-Origin Resource Sharing (CORS) headers return 200 '{"m.homeserver": {"base_url": "https://matrix.example.com:8448"}}'; } # https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/blob/develop/docs/delegate.md location /.well-known/matrix/server { default_type application/json; return 200 '{"m.server": "matrix.example.com:8448"}'; } }

3: you can host your own server and still write with people from other servers. and well...kinda hard to collect data if there's no third-party server to collect said data. can't get more private than that, at least not without going completely p2p. if that's too much work you can still use their default server or any other community hosted server.

I think it's the same logic as empty rooms. There is an opened issue about that : https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/4720

Fosscord

Try fooscord yu can self host your server. https://fosscord.com/ I never tried but yu have the possibility to e2e encryption and a lots more.

In Conclusion, no code is perfect code and refactoring code can teach you a lot (even if it is your own code). During the refactoring process I went very slow with each change to make sure nothing would break and made sure there were no bugs while I was running the code. Don’t forget to go find a Open Source project and contribute! This week I found a Open Source discord being created called Fosscord and thought it would be very interesting to share. I am still finding a style with how I want to do blog posts so if you have any feedback or recommendations please write them in the comments! Thank you for reading!

I looked into the issue addressing the Discord TOS and the HN post by a Discord staff member, and it seems like there's no difference between this and any other custom client in regards to how likely you are to get banned. You're either at the behest of Discord banning you for using a custom client (which the staff member confirms they will 100% do if they detect it, and if you appeal and get unbanned that you should "not do it again") or the authors of this for writing code that may or may not be completely undetectable. If they did write code that was perfectly undetectable, then spambots could just use that code, which clearly Discord does not intend to entertain. You're not getting reliably "Discord compatible" anything as long as Discord can't figure out good solutions to their problems.
