Ich wundere mich, warum im Firmen #matrixorg nix los ist. Also kein „Good Morning“ / „Moin“ / … … denke schon, dass entweder der Server in der Firma oder mein privater ein Problem hat, wäre da nicht der Icinga Raum, der um 11 eine Nachricht bekommen hat. Kucke auf die Uhr: „ Ach heute ist ja Samstag !“

Will es meiner Frau erzählen aber sie kommt mir (genervt) zuvor: Du dachtest die Firma brennt weil du nicht da bist und keine Nachrichten kommen 🫤“

Sie kennt mich einfach schon zugut.

🚀 Matrix.org thinks it's 2025 and still believes anyone cares about "nextgen" authentication. 🤖 Because clearly, shifting to #MAS in a dystopian future will solve all our problems while no one notices. 🌐

Matrix.org will migrate to MAS on Apr 7th 2025

Is it possible to configure a #Matrix server and/or a #Mastodon server in a "push and pull" mode? 🤔

In other words, a server that cannot be reached from the outside world but one that can push out locally produced "items" and pull remotely produced "items".

I'd call this "a private end node".

I'm guessing the answer is "no", but there are so many brilliant people here, I thought I'd at least ask.

Oh, wow.

"So unless the Foundation manages to raise $100,000 of funding by the end of March 2025 [...] we will have to shut down all the remaining bridges hosted by the Matrix.org Foundation. This includes bridges to Slack, XMPP, OFTC (IRC), and Snoonet (IRC). We will also mark the software behind those bridges as archived, as we don't have the resources to accept new contributions."

Since getting rid of #Meta seems now more obvious than ever, don't forget to try and move away from #whatsapp too.
It takes a lot of convincing, but e.g #Signal is not that complicated to get friends and family onboard with.
Or even better in the long run, but a bit more tricky, set them up with #matrixorg account.
Many universities in DE offer matrix home servers too.
