It’s 2026… Why do people insist on skipping the fact that XMPP exists?
Anyway. Just set up XMPP.
Why does nobody like matrix? I get setup maybe used to be hard but I personally used ansible playbook and its really noon friendly and simple

@Arda @lambalicious because the experience is truly garbage. Not only does it not scale and is slow (I stopped running a server years ago, but the resources it consumed was obnoxious), but the clients often do silly things like say they're waiting for a key refresh so it can't decrypt the message yet. I still have to use it for work unfortunately.

Basically yes. Matrix is in the unfortunate position of being a “nu-protocol”, something that should be good but it is intentionally designed to be bloated and wasteful just so that we (or really, techbros) can have a shiny new toy, instead of using proven, battle-tested technologies and standards that can run in a potato which is all we’ll have access to with how the RAM factories are going.
