My vps 1cpu stopped running reliably, thanks to #matrix using huge amounts of disk

Setting up #xmpp with a reverse proxy is undocumented.

I’m really struggling for #selfhosted chat options.

I plan to test them out — they flew under my radar despite me having looked for similar solutions for a while.

... extensive analysis of alternatives about 2 years ago, most of which I had never heard of, despite the extensive discussions we've had here several times here in the #Fediverse (of which I can only still find one convo:

There are but 2 alternatives of that French market research, #Olvid and #DataBag, that still made it...

Databag's design overview document (https://github.com/balzack/databag/blob/main/doc/design_overview.md) contains this wonderful introduction:

With all the wonderful things technology provides, it also has its darker side. Technology is increasingly used to violate our privacy and manipulate our beliefs and actions. End-to-end encryption has become standard and restores some of that privacy, but only addresses part of the problem. Self-hosting goes much further in providing true self-sovereignty while allowing technology to grow in a way that is beneficial to everyone.

Self-hosting involves running your own server to host a variety of services. These services can also be made available to friends and family. While self-hosting is gaining traction, it still remains mostly limited to those that are very technical. Without reaching the average person the impact and benefit of self-hosting also remains limited.

Wise words -- both paragraphs. Time to try Databag.

ABhD, mon entreprise, déploie peu à peu des instances sur le #fediverse .
Pour le moment, #mastodon #pixelfed et #databag sont de la partie.
D'autres plateformes rejoindront prochainement le monde décentralisé de ABhD. Le site https://fediverse.abhd.fr sera mis en ligne demain et permettra un accès simplifié et une ligne de conduite unique.
Anybody with experience with #databag a federated selfhosted messaging service?

#Databag seems an interesting project.

It offers federated, decentralised #IM with text, media, video/audio calls, E2E encryption, etc.

I would say it looks very similar to #XMPP.

In all honesty this is how #Matrix should have been handled from the start. With the big names of Matrix and IETF involved, I hope vanilla Matrix, #XMPP providers, platforms like #Databag, and maybe even #IRC networks can more directly federate, and with that firm base, it's only up from there!

Databag.
Communication for the
#Decentralized Web.

#Databag is a self-hosted #messaging service. Notable features include:

Public-private key based identity (not bound to any blockchain or hosting domain)
Federated (accounts on different nodes can communicate)
Topic based threads (messages organized by topic not contacts)
Lightweight (server runs on a raspberry pi zero v1.3)
Decentralized (direct communication between app and contact's node)
Low latency (use of websockets for push events to avoid polling)
Responsive (renders well in phone, tablet and pc)
Unlimited accounts per node (host for your whole family)
Mobile alerts (push notifications on new contacts and messages)

Test:
https://databag.coredb.org/#/create

Самостоятельный федеративный легкий мессенджер для децентрализованной сети.

Примечательные особенности включают в себя:
▫️Идентификация на основе открытого и закрытого ключа (не привязанная к какой-либо цепочке блоков или домену хостинга)
▫️Федеративный (учетные записи на разных узлах могут взаимодействовать)
▫️Обсуждения на основе тем (сообщения организованы по темам, а не по контактам)
▫️Легкий (сервер работает на Raspberry Pi Zero v1.3)
▫️Децентрализованный (прямая связь между приложением и узлом контакта)
▫️Низкая задержка (использование веб-сокетов для push-событий, чтобы избежать опроса)
▫️Отзывчивый (хорошо отображается на телефоне, планшете и ПК)
▫️Неограниченное количество учетных записей на узел (хостинг для всей вашей семьи)
▫️Мобильные оповещения (push-уведомления о новых контактах и сообщениях)
