Came across this on the r/selfhosted community. Still very much in the alpha stages, but it’s already got a Docker image you can try out for yourself, or try out the demo server.
Tried it earlier today, couldn’t get the voice/video chat to work right away on my self-hosted setup but the real-time chat was very snappy. Looks promising.


As much as I want to love matrix, it is a huuuuge pain to set up & maintain.
Not really, been running Synapse for 5ish years and I barely spend any time on it. Once you configure it then it just works
With voice/video or just text?
