But the more omemo gets deployed !!!sanely to spec!!! The less of a problem that should be

It's not just a some people care about privacy thing and some don't. That's important, but another thing is the liability of the host. With governments giving people gag orders and such and writing laws to give them unrestrained search and seizure powers, it's in the hoster's own interest not to retain any data or at least in a decryptable form that could be of any interest to someone else.
tom
Where that is increases the payout and the value for someone to hack your server

List of software installed or will be installed soon: https://thefreaks.club/p/2 Mainly need good support with GNU Social & Matrix w/ Jitsi integration
thndrbvr
I'm a n00b at this sys admin stuff so something that's on the easier side to install & maintain is nice. Lol. Secure, up-to-date. Complete & true to specs. I've got a dedicated Ubuntu 18.04 LTS server.
tom
Matrix is something completely different
tom
And a huge ram hog while at the same time not a standard
tom
Any XMPP server because it's a standard will work with any other client
tom
Between to two most popular XMPP server implementations the question is really do you want to host ~1-1000 users, or do you want to host 10,000-100,000,000 users

I do hope in several years there will be hundreds of thousands of TFC members :)

Jitsi is XMPP. Not sure how the video conferencing part of Matrix comes into play here.
thndrbvr
Also, I've got a guy helping (okay, doing all the actual work) me set up a single sign on + MFA.
MattJ
Matrix (well, Riot - I don't know how many other clients support it) just embeds Jitsi in an iframe in the page

Their mobile app uses the Jitsi SDK now I believe, so it has a little neater integration. But yes, it's XMPP behind :)
thndrbvr
Only other use case I was thinking of would be some sort of ticketing / help desk thing. I saw something the other day that had a web chat that used XMPP. Can't recall which at the moment. Not sure exactly what I want to do here but I expect in the future this will be necessary and I'd rather have it from the start ;)
tom
I've seen multiple web-browser based xmpp client embeds
tom
But i never put much thought into them
tom
I try not to use things that are shoehorned into a web browser
tom
But
thndrbvr
Yeah..
tom
I'm sure a search for "xmpp html5" would turn up some relevant results
thndrbvr
It was more of "oh hey, that's a cool idea." kind of thing when I saw it lol

I used to work in that area, a number of those things are XMPP-based (notably Olark)
MattJ
Most are poor homegrown protocols by people who never designed protocols before
thndrbvr
:(
MattJ
I'm not sure what FOSS choices are available
MattJ
I wrote a basic one years ago
MattJ
Converse.js may support being used this way, not sure

I'm taking a peek at what Softaculous has. Got a shared web host I use to test out a couple things. When I first started this project/community/business it wasn't quite as complex as it's striving to be now. After I realized I needed root access and all, I got a real server in Iceland.

thndrbvr: It's a fork of Prosody by Maranda here. I work on Prosody, Maranda works on Metronome. Ask us anything but which one is better ;)

Lol hey! And I think I just saw you guys updating your git a few hours ago -- impressive.

thndrbvr, could have been me, I'm conjuring up some stuff related to YuNoHost feature requests.

which reminds me, anyone knows if Jitsi Meet actually uses MAM in anyway?

jonas’, thanks, I seen some controversial things in configuration files (which I had to correct by the way) and I wondered.
