Comment on What is the current state of Matrix?

If you want a conduwuit sucessor, I'd choose the continuwuity project over tuwunel. The legitimacy as the sucessor is mainly self-proclaimed, and continuwuity is a community effort. The entire thing is kind of a shitshow, though. If you want to do it like 99% of people, make friends with Synapse.

I think what you describe still holds true. You need a few correct DNS entries and an open port. Once you want VoIP, some more ports and a TURN server will become necessary. I didn't find it too hard. And I run continuwuity these days because Synapse wastes too much resources for what I do and their other efforts went nowhere. But I'm not sure about the future of those smaller Matrix server projects.

You realise that sounds insane, right?

  Sure, I believe that is supposed to be uWu or maybe some kind of puppy talk. It's certainly originally started by June, who turned conduit (which is a sane name) into conduwuit.
  
  I figured I've lost all shame anyway, back when we discussed nerd topics in the school bus or the 5 'o clock train, like Linux lore, anime, Star Trek concepts and technobabble. I mean people were staring and I'm aware of that, but I've really lost all F*'s to give. And that turns me into the person who I am today, and I'll happily write sentences like the one above. Or still talk about Star Trek in a crowded train. And these days it's the mycelial network and that really makes people question my sanity. 🫠

Why do you prefer continuwuity? Curious as I’m running tuwunel.

  We've had the discussion a while back here in selfhosted. You can find it here: https://awful.systems/post/5029223
  
  Main points: Continued drama around people, and tuwunel is programmed by a single, (paid) developer and I figure once there's anything wrong with that, tuwunel might die instantly. While continuwuity is a community effort and maybe that's a bit more sustainable. Though I don't own any crystal ball and I don't know how things will turn out.
