WeeChat VS Conduit Chat Server

WeeChat[0] with Bitlbee[1] supports a metric assload of services, albeit by pretending they're IRC (which does work - I spent years in weechat/irssi with bitlbee talking to various people on disparate services.) Or if you're just after Telegram/WhatsApp, nchat[2] is ok (I can vouch for the Telegram half only.) [0] https://weechat.org [1] https://wiki.bitlbee.org [2] - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago

And UnrealIRCD still rocks. For a quick-and-dirty setup I've deploy ng-ircd but Unreal has always been my go-to for anything serious. If nothing else it can be useful as a backup or internal platform during the rare events that Slack or Discord are having an incident. The common complaint is a lack of channel back-log but it can be front-ended with TheLounge [1] or Convos [2]. I personally prefer to handle... - Source: Hacker News / 9 months ago

I’m afraid you’re in the wrong subreddit. This subreddit is dedicated to WeeChat the IRC client., not the proprietary messaging app built by Tencent. Source: about 1 year ago

If you're talking about Element switching its contributions to Synapse from Apache to AGPL, the rationale is that folks who want to commercialise Synapse will either have to a) opensource their changes, b) pay for an AGPL exception from Element, c) use a different server (e.g. Apache-licensed Conduit from https://conduit.rs) or d) write their own server. This hardly feels like suffocating competition. - Source: Hacker News / 5 months ago

Reminder - https://conduit.rs/ Rust implementation of the matrix server stack. - Source: Hacker News / 6 months ago

Many who have causally read about Matrix and looked into running a homeserver have run across the reference implementation Synapse, which is (IMO only, pls no flame) a bloated python monstrosity. This turned me off for years. A second-gen (?) alternative written in Go called Dendrite is much lighter weight, but is lacking in some features last I looked. A couple of years ago, I found Conduit (https://conduit.rs/)... - Source: Hacker News / 9 months ago

In Conduit (https://conduit.rs) there is no default config path, in order to start Conduit, you need to specify the CONDUIT_CONFIG environment variable, which is the path to your config. This will typically be done in a systemd service. This has multiple benefits:. - Source: Hacker News / 11 months ago

Until now, Rust was only present in the Matrix ecosystem thanks to contributions by third-parties in the form of Conduit and Fractal. So this is pretty rad. Amongst these two, Conduit is the most important project imo. It's a Matrix home server, written from scratch in Rust. Source: about 1 year ago
