I have been following https://linmob.net/ for news and developments. They do a good job aggregating from conferences, boards, HN, and reddit.

That is fair, and I appreciate the explanation.

Edit: Author says GenAI was not used for code, see below.

Original comment, observing signs of GenAI project:

What’s up with these brand-new “Discord alternatives” being cranked out en masse? Would be easier to contribute to XMPP or Matrix IMO.

Initial commit 14,203 files changed +2872320

AI? Or “i worked on this for 10 years and uploaded just now”? /s

Overabundance of emojis in description. Probably AI.

Would be cool to see if anyone manages to get it running.

Were you able to run it yourself? What.

Allegedly, VoLTE works on Ubuntu Touch for OnePlus Nord N100, N10, Volla Phone 22, and Fairphone 4.

I knew of some of these issues with the protocol, but this article definitely gives an impression that Matrix was built as a “cool protocol” first, with messaging applied on top as an afterthought.

It’s possible to run the services without Kubernetes, but official ESS Community uses Kubernetes.

ESS Community works ‘out-of-the-box’ on a single machine or existing Kubernetes cluster using the provided Helm charts.

TLDR: bare Synapse was fine on 1CPU 1GB RAM VPS, but uses lots of disk space (from large rooms). Current/future ESS requires Kubernetes and several services to be functional.

Thank you for the queries. The rhetorical question is why isn’t the server handling this.
