I got inspired by setting up my own Mastodon instance and getting into this whole decentralised federated model to try out Matrix (matrix.org, @matrix). So, after some fiddling I managed to have a Matrix server running using Synapse. You can now IM me through @clemens:matrix.multiverset.net or come in and say hi in the public lobby of my server: #lobby:matrix.multiverset.net 😎
Matrix.org
Matrix is an open standard for interoperable, decentralised, real-time communicationMatrix.org

in reply to Bloodaxe • • •It will definitely be a learning experience. There are some moving parts involved in setting up a server: finding and setting up a host machine, getting a domain, pointing the domain to the right host, getting a certificate for https, setting up a reverse proxy, etc.
