Hiya.

Because a certain country I’m a citizen of likes messing with international traffic, I’ve been increasingly aware of the fact web services can break here overnight. One of the things I’ve still yet to move somewhere more local (or at least have a reasonable backup plan) is messaging.

Matrix seems to be a decent enough replacement for Discord and Telegram in case things go south, but I’m a total brokie. What would be the be the least resource intensive server to put on a VPS in case I’ll need to do it, and would I lose out much in features (say, multiuser voice chats) if I were to use that least resource intensive server?

Cheers.

    Hmm, maybe it is possible, but Snikket is quite opinionated and you need to keep in mind that the XMPP server also needs direct access to the TLS certificate as it isn’t only using port 443.

    Maybe it will be better to just use Prosody (or Ejabberd) instead then.
