After over a decade spent creating Signal, Moxie has departed to focus on new efforts. As the founder of Signal, the work he did and the organization he built are the reason Signal exists. We are infinitely grateful. He remains a friend and a core part of the Signal legacy ❤️🙏
Do you mind if I ask how you set up your own matrix instance? What software did you use? Are you hosted in the cloud or a home lab type setup? Sorry for so many questions but I’ve been wanting to do this for a while now
I would also recommend the Matrix-Docker-Ansible-Deploy playbook for setting up a Matrix server. It supports Synapse (the “mainline” server implementation), Conduit, and Dendrite as the actual homeserver backend.
It does take a while to go through the sheer number of options they have available, but it makes it incredibly easy to spin up a Matrix server, as well as update one. I haven’t setup any bridges with it, but its nice to know that it also supports a great deal of them, and can just be toggled on through the playbook settings.
The documentation is also fantastic, and there’s a massive community in case you run into any trouble with it.
