There seem to be plentiful options for text chat servers, so I’m curious for those that self-host their own, what their preferences & experiences have been with them.

Also those mentioned in the title were just a few examples, if you run something else, e.g. Revolt or Mattermost or something else less popular, would be interested in reading about it!

    I grabbed Element X to try it out but my self host doesn’t support sliding sync. There is a sliding sync proxy docker that got put out to help but not sure I want to set that up if it will eventually get added to main. Might have to just wait. 😔

      I’ll definitely set up the sliding sync proxy for the time being. It’s such a big improvement (after the initial sync) that I don’t want to wait for native support in conduit. Especially since conduit takes some time to support new features quickly.

          I’m not sure since it’s been a while since I tried it on my matrix.org account, but I’d say it took about as long as logging in on a new device.
