I’ve seen Matrix and Element mentioned a few times around here.
So here is a docker setup guide for anyone wanting to quickly run their own federated messaging server

I love my matrix server, and Element has taken over as the messaging app of choice. Now even when it’s just me and the wife texting back and forth, I own the data.
When we all fully realize how they all intend to use our data against us, it’ll be too late.
Yep, been running my homeserver for 2 years. Mostly just me, my gf and my son. I join some federated rooms now and again, but I have dedicated channels for memes, a group for all of us, her and I and her and my son have their own chat. It’s dope.
Bumping this, but has anyone managed to get video calling to work properly with Matrix? It’s the only thing stopping me from totally ditching WhatsApp.
Yes I have video calling working, and I use it everyday. Hint: CoTurn server
Nice guide, but it recommends installing UFW along with docker. I thought that UFW and docker’s iptables rules did not play well together.
That is, I believe UFW’s rules came AFTER docker’s, which reduces its effectiveness somewhat. I’ve been cobbling together my own iptables script to take the place of UFW everwhere I have docker installed.
Anyone else know more about this?
P.S. Spent awhile going through that guide and others to get my own matrix / element setup going yesterday. Very nice. Working on video next.
