Understandable.
Understandable.
Hm, fair enough, I actually have very little experience with XMPP. (Only through prosody, which I personally am on a war footing with.) From a cursory glance, I also couldn’t find an Android lient I’d really want to use, but of course that is subjective.
In any case: I have a matrix server up and running, and it has been a pain to get friends and family on there; I do not want to do all of that again with a new protocol/clients. As long as it’s sustainable, I want to stay with the same server installation, and that means choosing a conduwuit
for me.
There’s nothing technically wrong with it, it’s just a glacial development speed. I tried contributing there myself when I wanted a specific feature (which had been requested years prior by someone else and was deemed a good idea), it took months before I even got a single comment back.
In the meantime, I had switched to conduwuit
because it was a much, MUCH more active project. However, conduwuit
has diverged substantially from conduit
, including irreconcilable database changes, so it is not possible to migrate back, that would require starting from a fresh slate and loosing all user data.
Understandable. Funny thing is, I’m not even federated; I think that keeps me away from a lot of drama.
But yeah. The drama sucks, and so does the Matrix Foundation. So many dumb decisions, so many years old issues that could easily boost acceptance and usability, but… Nah. No better alternatives around though if you want to own your data, have proper multi-client support, and at least the option to federate.
Nice, how’s it been going?
Roger, will do.
Yeah, community driven sounds like unless there’s new drama. But yeah, currently tending towards continuwuity. Purely vibes based from snooping around both repos.
We have NixOS, Proxmox and TrueNAS in use.
graphics.nvidia.enable = true;
which then becomes pretty self-explanatory, at least if you are somewhat familiar with the ecosystem already. The way I’d recommend going about documentation with nix is this:
nixpkgs
. Look at what they are doing there/the comments explaining why. Often, this resolves any ambiguity, or helps you out with your goal.language:nix <thing you need to do>
. As a random example: I recently wasn’t sure how to configuring scaling in hyprland on NixOS, but searching for an appropriate term will quickly show you how other people have solved the same problem. It’s not really documentation, but the declarative nature of nix means it’s easy to find TONS of working examples via a github search.So, what’s my advice?
If you are unfamiliar with NixOS, it’s probably a bit of a headache getting a NAS to run satisfactory. Truenas works so well, there isn’t really a need for nix. But running your services in nix is great, totally recommend!
Not sure, but they also support Borg, which definitely does.
Btw, nice read OP. Always great to see more Nix “in the wild”.
Yeah, but no dark magic involved.
The only “magic” parts are two nix modules for handling proper networking and hardware setup, and exposing required attributes to the script.
Works really well, zero manual config (beyond the services you want to run…) required on nix or proxmox side.
Nothing. People fearmonger
Funny - same thing here. Got 3 proxmox hosts running, all virtual machines are NixOS though.
I’d love to go full Nix, but between my GF and I, we kinda split the responsibilities: hardware is hers, applications are mine. And there’s not a chance she’ll give up her Proxmox hosts 😄
Got it automated to a single “provision” command though that will spin up any of my nix VMS unanttended, so I’m happy with that.
There so much misogyny oozing out of your comment, I think I’ll go disinfect my screen now.
Hope your friend gets convicted for sending unsolicited explicit content 👍
I always sort by new comments.
It’s a goddamn stochastic parrot, starting from zero on each invocation and spitting out something passing for coherence according to its training set.
“Not understanding what is happening” in regards to AI is NOT “we don’t jniw how it works mechanically” it’s “yeah there are so many parameters, it’s just not possible to make sense of / keep track of them all”.
There’s no awareness or thought.
Last place of employment had develop
as the default branch. Actually quite liked it. (There also was a main branch, which only got merged into as part of the release flow, so might as well have called it release
, I suppose).
Anyway, IMO it communicated “volatile and subject to change” a lot more clearly than things like “head of main” etc
Now THAT is something I wouldn’t ever trust.
I bike (more carrying capacity) about 9km each direction. (Belgium to Germany, funnily enough.) That being said, not wanting to do so under the burning sun is absolutely valid.
Yes, completely agree. It seems that the matrix foundation could easily take a different path to allow the community to flourish and third-party servers to have a much easier time. Since I’m not federated, I wouldn’t even mind if whatever fork I’ll end up on eventually says “fuck this, we’re not following synapse specs any more”.
But yeah, I am sure selling premium accounts on matrix.org is what will save the matrix ecosystem… 🤦🏼♀️
