Synapse

37 10,483 9.9 Python

Synapse: Matrix homeserver written in Python/Twisted.

Project mention: Matrix 2.0 — Matthew Hodgson talks about Rust in Element client, Rust SDK, IETF MLS, MIMI and more | reddit.com/r/rust | 2023-02-07

Now, the Matrix Foundation has decided to use Rust to improve bits and pieces of their Gen 1 Home Server - Synapse. The server itself is still largely in Python though. That being said, some of the improvements to the performance of Synapse based home servers can partly be attributed to the usage of Rust.

signal

A Matrix-Signal puppeting bridge (by mautrix)

Project mention: Hosting Signal frontend on a local server (Like Signal desktop but through website) | reddit.com/r/selfhosted | 2022-11-30

OWS has historically been hostile to third party implementations outside of their clients. There are multiple unofficial options but the only one I've been looking at is the bridge with matrix, though setting up a matrix server just for this is likely overkill.
facebook

A Matrix-Facebook Messenger puppeting bridge (by mautrix)

Project mention: Most used selfhosted services in 2022? | reddit.com/r/selfhosted | 2022-12-27

Sure, I use this bridge (https://github.com/mautrix/facebook) to bridge synapse server to my facebook account, so I can use facebook messenger through my synapse server. I like it mainly so I don't have to install facebook messenger on my phone.
