My matrix server is like a hungry beast. I feed it CPU and RAM and it just keeps asking for more. Then again it is handling thousands of chat rooms and accounts at this point and needs to calculate a huge diff to send to my client every time I load. :P

What are folks using for subscribing to #email #MailingList software? We basically want something to manage email signups which we can use with an API to send out emails to everyone. Ideally they should be able to unsub if they want. We'd want to be able to send either html or markdown via api.

The #Mozilla #Hubs shutdown is also exactly why communities should be investing in #p2p tooling. Had they gone with a fully distributed model there would be no central service to close and the communities using it could have kept doing so regardless of Mozillas involvement. Instead they went "cloud native" and initially relied on a specific cloud platform which basically locks everyone into a final shutdown regardless of who "owns" the cloud.
