  • I know someone who's literally making that right now. Remind me in a week, I'll send you the link. He'll probably be done by then.

    What definition of democracy are we using here? Just so we're on the same page.

    I do not think trump was making a meaningful change on that level, in any case. The US never had a true people's rule it that's what you mean, for trump to take it away.

    Gaza is not the only issue.

  • they are also clearly not a Biden supporter. They do not support either candidate, so the two options should be treated equally.

  • For XMPP, have you looked into using snikket? It does most things you'd want out of the box without having to setup extensions yourself.

  • Arch Linux for gaming?

    Jump

  • Arch works well for gaming. However, depending on what you're doing, you should keep this in mind:

    • on any distro, updates may break things or change the behavior of apps. The difference in arch is that youll update no less than weekly on average, maybe biweekly at worst. This would matter more if you have a complex setup. If you're just using steam, I wouldn't worry
    • arch only uses the latest versions of software. If you ever install something from outside the arch repos, you have to make sure it is compatible with recent versions. Sometimes it may not be.

  • I've been wanting to do this exact thing. I already have wireguard setup. Please update us if you do this.

  • This makes matrix even less attractive to me lol. But you're right, that's a very good point.

  • cumbersome to parse

    Parsers have already existed for so long in every major language. Why need to worry about parsing?

    And why need to worry about transports working differently if they achieve the same thing? They seem similarly convenient if I understood what you said correctly

  • Why is Matrix mentioned more often than XMPP in self hosted forums?

    Jump

  • Why is JSON better than XML? It's more modern, sure, but from technical perspective it is not objectively better right? Not something worth switching protocols for.

    You mention XMPP has transports as opposed to Matrix bridges. I thought they give you roughly the same outcome. What's the difference?

  • [Question] Why is Matrix mentioned more often than XMPP in self hosted forums?

    Jump

  • From a quick look into XMPP's clients for android, they seem nice and some have modern features too.

    Is there any technical limitation that would prevent xmpp client from having a WhatsApp-like UI?? WhatsApp started out with XMPP and probably still uses a variant of it. If anything, I'd imagine its harder with matrix given the complexity of the protocol.

  • [Question] Why is Matrix mentioned more often than XMPP in self hosted forums?

    Jump

  • Makes sense, but to me newness alone is not a benefit. In fact, it is a bit of a disadvantage. XMPP has more clients for example, and they are more mature.
