Looking for a simple self hosted chat system for non technical end users.

We got everyone off FB messaging to sms but the android peeps have old devices which I think is part of why they see blurry low res images sent from iPhones. Or Apple botched RCS implementation.

I have a Synology nas and have tried syno chat (clunky) and rocket chat via docker (too many bells and whistles and overly complex onboarding of end users)

Suggestions?

Anything that can spin up in a docker instance, I will try.

#selfhositng #chat

I don't know if I'm just being stupid about this or not, but i find myself pulling away from tailscale. I don't know .. The abstraction been dope, but when things breaks it adds a bit of complexity. I guess any other thing would be the same. I just slapped this thing everywhere and it's sort of getting old! Starting to remove a lot of it.

#homelab #selfhositng

I'm now thinking about rebuilding one of my #incus host in the #homelab as it just has to much storage in there. I have a 1TB nvme and another 500gig sata ssd which is attached to my DAS with a couple of TB's of space i'm pretending I know what I'm doing with. I have an Odroid just sitting around I can put that back in use after I promptly took it out of the homelab.. Just to sit there and waste power. :)
