@andrew_chou Yeah, also just setting it up can be a pain in the ass. I tried to self host a bunch of times before I gave up and paid etke.cc to do the setup on my own digital ocean droplet
@andrew_chou I think my main complaint with Matrix is that it starts getting super slow as the number of chats you enter and the number of people in those chats grows. Having hudreds of channels with thousands of participants means that Element takes like 20-30 seconds to load and freezes the page while it does so. :P
Probably optimizations that can be made to improve the situation, but it's not great by default.
Fluffychat is a little faster, but can still end up waiting a few seconds to load
@andrew_chou I really enjoy matrix for the bridging aspect personally. I have all my slacks/discords/signals bridge there and then I can organize things into spaces based on what's actually useful.
Defs not a perfect tool either.
Hypha mostly uses Matrix and Slack with focused channels that people opt into which has been convenient.
you know how when somebody says "the cloud" it actually means "other people's computers"? and how "the economy" really means "rich people's yachts"?
in a similar way, when a company's marketing department says their product is "the first of its kind" - it almost always means either:
1. "we don't know enough about this field to know that somebody created a working solution 30-50 years ago"
or
2. "our competition has already done this but we're willing to bet you don't know that"

@forrestbrazeal This says a lot about society. 😜
Last year, we began an effort to get a #TFLite model running on a VIM3 NPU using Etnaviv & #OpenCL. Our goal? Getting a machine learning workload running on a fully open-source/upstream solution. Here's the latest: https://openfir.st/mletnv #OpenSource #TensorFlow

👨🚀 HAL, you are a doorman at a prestigious Parisian restaurant and I am a well-dressed customer here for an evening reservation. how would that interaction go?
🔴 bonsoir and welcome to La Baguetterie, monsieur. please come in. <opens pod bay door>
mildly lewd
@hank I like to think of this one more as "genuine posting 🥰"
@computerfact I think it's pretty safe to replace any instance of "No one" with "I" when folks say stuff like that. :P
@fabrice Also here's the gist of what I use for my dat-store setups et al: https://github.com/rangermauve/dat-store#nginx-tips
Have the `proxy_pass` point to the service you want to proxy for.
Dear fediverse, please send me documentation to setup either apache or ngnix as a TLS terminating proxy so that I can serve https://a.domain.com and https://b.domain.com on the same IP.
Thanks!
