I just installed Miniflux on my server as well.

Advantages (in my opinion) are: Package is in Debian repos (safe and no compilation needed), software is a static binary (thus does not require docker and only needs postgreSQL), documentation is good.

This tool looks fantastic, thank you!

And Snikket for super-easy setup and management

Synapse has seemingly improved since 2020. A word of warning though: if you join large rooms from your server, Synapse will eventually grow the DB to a huge size due to a "lookup" table state_groups_state, and will require manual cleanup. See https://www.sequentialread.com/matrix-synapse-out-of-disk-space-state_groups_state/

Which was started/inspired by these two music videos:

Check out Angie Tribeca. It's a parody cop show with non-stop nonsense similar to how Kung Fury is.

Right before Kung Fury, there was Iron Sky. Moon Nazis, Sarah Palin as the U.S. president, and just generally over the top. Iron Sky 2 was kinda meh.

That explains why Synapse and some other things moved under element-hq on GitHub.

Doesn't Element get funding from some EU governments? IIRC it was used by some police force in Germany and some departments in France.

Thank you for your comments.

Nothing irritates me more than walls of code without any comments and the "cOdE sHoUld bE sElf-DoCuMenTiNg" attitude. No, it's impossible to describe complex industry-specific processes by naming your variables and functions nicely.

Revelation Space series does not have FTL, but in its place, an engine that can produce 1G indefinitely (not manufactured anymore, powered by handwavium, it seems... but the secret is revealed in one of the short stories). There is further shenanigans with physics, but never FTL.

It definitely adds more nuance to the world, because now you can't have interstellar empires if you cannot communicate over large distances.

It really depends on the business.

I worked for two smaller businesses (team of ≤ 10 software developers). One was mismanaged, ran by very unpleasant people, and abusive towards employees, resulting in a huge turnover and a "dead sea effect". The other company got government grants because the owner's relative was a politician, and had ridiculous surveillance software on developers' machines.

Ironically, the most "human" and enjoyable work I did was working on internal legacy software and code rewrites for a huge corporation before and during their move towards agile and modern "conveyorized" approach to software.

When I ran prosody a few years ago, I did so without docker.

I did try snikket in docker though, and it looks like it is still actively maintained.

Reminds me of a "minimalist text editor" that my coworker showed me circa 2015. It was an Electron app that consumed more RAM to display a empty file than Firefox with 5 active tabs.
