@2xsaiko A big caveat is that I used them in very different time frames - prosody starting from 2021 to now, while ejabberd I used from 2006 to 2012 or so. At the time I used it, ejabberd's config was done in erlang(!); they apparently they've since switched to yaml configs. It was generally fine, but when I switched back to XMPP in 2021, I figured I'd go with a server in a less niche language and better support (the jmp.chat folks mostly use & recommend snikket/prosody).
@BackYardIncendiary @ProdigalFrog If you have an old latitude, newer kernels also allow you to set min/max charging thresholds. My syncthing server (and NAS and a few other things) is an old 2013/2014 dell latitude e7240. It's not the original battery, but I do keep it in decent shape via charging thresholds.
@jerrimu A usability suggestion, having just tried it out - save the username and room password in the export file to make it more like a traditional chat experience. So when you import the chat file, the username and password are pre-populated along with the room name.

City streets are _not_ specifically for cars. Freeways aren't even specifically for cars (buses, trucks), but city streets in particular are definitely not just for cars.
Tree roots are a solved problem. Lots of city master plans and similar documents have a list of trees allowed in the public right-of-way that have root systems compatible with sidewalks and roads. Some trees have roots that buckle concrete, others have roots that don't. Choose wisely.
@ECEC Good lord the number of replies here from people whose brains have been destroyed by "planners"...
- Trees lower the urban heat island effect.
- There's plenty of room for trees in dense places, so long as "density" means efficient housing and efficient transportation rather than parking lots and stroads and single-family homes.
- Someone said "trees require maintenance", as if asphalt & pretty much everything doesn't require maintenance?
- Trees harm cars. But cars harm cars too!
@claralistensprechen5th @ECEC Sounds like the problem is cars, not trees.
@ItJustDonn @486 Hang on, this runs chromium as root? That seems like a _really_ bad idea. And unnecessary, since there's a hoarder user installed later in the script...

@semperverus @possiblylinux127 No, this other person has a working 'e' key on their keyboard.
@wildbus8979 @Bahnd Yeah, XMPP checks all the boxes. That said, I don't know how well encrypted group chats (MUC) work with various clients.
Also, while message contents are encrypted, metadata is not. Self-hosting ameliorates that, but if your "self-hosting" involves a VPS or whatever hosted by a giant corporation, then that's something to be aware of.
@synapse1278 I recently bought a used 8tb drive off ebay for $45. Manufacturing date on the drive was 2016, but Power_On_Hours was 4 (four!). I asked the seller if they reset SMART data; his response:
"We do not reset power on hours, as we could get in a ton of trouble listing used drives as new bulk etc after altering the power on hours. This one likely was used in/for testing an array etc. "
So I'm pretty pleased with that..

@2xsaiko XMPP is nice and lightweight, so I think either would work fine. I just find prosody has more community momentum.
It was matrix that was a massive memory hog, required running bleeding-edge homeserver software, didn't do proper security support, etc, so that's where I have stronger feelings.
