Whar? GitHub Pages is a static host. Jekyll is a static site generator. The only thing you don’t get is a free CI deploy pipeline, but you don’t need that to deploy a website.

Hmm, making a good point there 🤔 big purse need to break gender norms or expand into big shoulder/waist pouch so big trousers can make pocket size equitable

Men’s pockets are for putting expensive wallets and keychains in

You can just run the build locally and push the output to a branch. Same as people using other SSGs with GitHub pages have been doing for ages

Your issues with voice calls are likely because you didn’t set them up, and the web client was using the fallback server.

Most of the names you can find by looking at the Git history of Element’s repos - but that seems a bit stalkerish to people that have private lives to me.

The error shown in the video is the one that means that they just… didn’t set up video calling? It requires more setup than just the text chat for technical reasons that no service can escape.

Resource usage is a common complaint for Synapse hosters, you might find something like Continuwuity more lightweight

Star dragons, or whatever they’re called, are… uh… mildly bad. Also important to the pre-human lore iirc

I’d recommend joining https://matrix.to/#/#continuwuity:continuwuity.org for support

That is being worked on as you write :3

If you’re British you can just say continooity. American English speakers have to say contin-uwu-ity :3

We have over a thousand active deployments. We’ve got bugs, but we’re working on them. I’d suggest joining our community rooms :3

Rocksdb has tuning options for hard drives, but not sure Stalwart exposed them

On desktop? Yes. On Element X? Not yet. Requires additional setup, as it’s not a core part of the homeserver

Generally you can’t tag stuff from your phone. Either tag it on MusicBrainz.org / ListenBrainz.org and then pull that in via Picard or Beets or make playlists

A lot of the people reporting issues with Matrix being slow and resource heavy are reporting issues with Synapse, which is Element’s big Python implementation. My Continuwuity instance, which is a server written in Rust, uses a fraction of a CPU and a total storage in the hundreds of megabytes. A few less features, but it has most of the ones people care about.

I kind of don’t want to bother replying to your random claims, but I’ll bite a little:

That post is now five years old, and almost completely wrong or outdated. That first paragraph is also absurd fearmongering - and both technically impossible for matrix and against Element’s buisiness interests. I develop my own homeserver software, and it’s recently become more popular than dendrite. I use a client developed by a friend that seems like it has more features than element (although it’s less user friendly).

Being an official standard isn’t working out particularly well for ActivityPub.

For spam protection, we use tools like meowlnir or draupnir with the cooperation of the homeserver to allow completely blocking spam invites - so if a matrix ID goes evil you can leave the room you have with them and add them to a ban list, and you can subscribe to a variety of other ban lists to ban things in advance

Matrix is just as much as a standard as XMPP, if not more so because extensions actually get merged into the core spec
