Because sendmail-to-matrix and matrix-commander, etc, are having problems with verification, I scraped together a quick utility to send messages to a matrix room from the command line using Maubot and webhooks: github.com/uriel1998/se... #matrix #maubot #webhook

✨ Been busy expanding my self-hosted stack again!

Latest additions:
🌉 A couple more Matrix bridges + Maubot (finally!) for some automation fun 🤖

🎬 PeerTube now running too, because why not go fully decentralised?

Slowly building my own little federated ecosystem one service at a time 💜

My personal laptop, which runs @ubuntu, is on a shamefully old version and is clunky. So I took my Windows device from work. I'm a bit ashamed to take it out and use it.

Ubuntu Summit 2024

The Ubuntu Summit The Ubuntu Summit for the last two years has served as a showcase for the innovative and the ambitious. We aim to shine a light on those who are not satisfied with the status quo by giving the stage to the experts, the builders, the engineers, and the tinkerers who demonstrate that excellent engineering can be done in the open. By elevating these voices through the Ubuntu Summit, we hope to drive forward our collective mission to build the future with open source software....

Endich habe ich den Matrix-Text-to-Speech-Bot zum laufen bekommen.
Habe mir extra ein eigenes Ubuntu Maubot Docker-Image gebaut
darmstadt/maubuntubot.
Jetzt kann ich Sprachnachrichten an meinen Bot weiterleiten und sie als Textform zurückgesendet bekommen.
Wen es interessiert unbedingt bei (ElishaAz/mau_local_stt)[
https://github.com/ElishaAz/mau_local_stt] vorbeischauen. Ein spitze Projekt das ~noch~ keiner kennt. #matrix #beeper #stt #whisper #docker #maubot #selfhost #selfhosted #bots

I have a somewhat similar thing based on #Maubot
