on Matrix or Signal? · c/opensource · 9 pts · 57d

I prefer matrix for two main reasons:

  • I can host my own server (and I do)
  • It's not centralized

As a bonus it has briddes for almost anything you can think of, so I use the signal bridge.

I opted for a pc, but I guess a rasperry pi should do the trick provided you can get one that doesn't cost an arm (see what I did there?) and you can slap a disk on it, SD cards wear off quickly. A mini-pc/nuc or similar would pack more punch, I don't know about prices compared to a rpi.

Once you have gnu/linux installed you can do whatever you want.

About remote control kde connect does wonders if you choose to use kde plasma as desktop environment, I heard a port for gnome exists that works well though.

Some beat them up: tmnt, streets of rage 4

Also since you did not mention playing remotely or not (although there are ways around that: parsec, steam remote play together...) almost any couch coop game: overcooked, moving out, unrailed...

Edit: all of those I cited have a online multiplayer mode I think, for overcooked the AYCE edition contains all of the first edition content but brings online MP amongst other things

I don't know if it's because I'm from Europe or something else but I've been hosting my emails for over 10 years and never really had issues like those discribed in the article.

The only issues I had was when I had to send a lot of emails in a shirt time (invites for a wedding, and it was on a newly created dedicated domain, don't know if that made it worse).

Also when I was hosting at home, but since I moved to a dedicated server everything has been fine.

That being said I agree that we are being victims of a disgusting racket and that something should be done to make sure everyone is doing their job so that we leave a fair chance to competition. There are rules to regulate other things, I don't see why it shouldn't be the case for email and interoperability in general.

Very interesting article and analysis, it's a shame we reached this state though...
