Ah, nice. In that case just beware to move /var/lib/private/conduwuit to /var/lib/private/continuwuity, not /var/lib/conduwuit to its counterpart
Ah crap, forgot to ping you! Sorry!!
Yep, easy decision now. Migration went smoothly, just had to move the state dir and chown it to continuwuity:continuwuity. Might be different on docker though, no idea, sorry 😄
Update: seems to me tuwunel is drama waiting to happen. See updated post for details.
No, even QR I can only accept as an option, as in completely optional. I'm out and about without a phone quite frequently.
Nah. We phone 1-2x/week, these are very specific "sorry to ask this again, I have already put in the cable, but now what" questions.
OK, maybe I was a bit harsh. Everyone being on lemmy personally has no excuse, their parents might :D
My mom calls me every 3-4 weeks to ask how she can copy photos from her phone to her laptop. She's been doing that for years and years, she should know the process by now, it's really not hard at all.
I installed Bitwarden for her 2 years ago on her phone and in Firefox, she hasn't needed a single support call about it and actually transferred two decades worth of logins two Bitwarden by herself.
My point is, if my mom can do it, then you have no excuse.
Yes, completely agree. It seems that the matrix foundation could easily take a different path to allow the community to flourish and third-party servers to have a much easier time. Since I'm not federated, I wouldn't even mind if whatever fork I'll end up on eventually says "fuck this, we're not following synapse specs any more".
But yeah, I am sure selling premium accounts on matrix.org is what will save the matrix ecosystem... 🤦🏼♀️
Understandable.
Hm, fair enough, I actually have very little experience with XMPP. (Only through prosody, which I personally am on a war footing with.) From a cursory glance, I also couldn't find an Android lient I'd really want to use, but of course that is subjective.
In any case: I have a matrix server up and running, and it has been a pain to get friends and family on there; I do not want to do all of that again with a new protocol/clients. As long as it's sustainable, I want to stay with the same server installation, and that means choosing a conduwuit for me.
It might, very very slightly go down. But the way you have to think about a media is this:
Put all 342 million Americans in a single line, sorted by net worth from west to east in increasing order. Find the person standing in the middle, i.e. person 171 million. That's the median net worth.
Now remove the top 10 richest people, i.e. ~~behead the snake~~ politely ask the 10 people standing easternmost to leave the line. Now to find the new median, go back to the original median person and move five to the left. That's the new median.
Most likely, you'd have a negligible amount of change. Maybe a couple of bucks.
ALso note that for this it does not matter just HOW rich the richest persons are.
