- Comment on Looking for a selfhostable chat service that people on phone and computers can log onto 2 weeks ago:
I’ve had a little snikket (prosody docker, xmpp) sever running for a year. monacles or cheogram are just fine, playing games with the fam in the chats is really cool.
dino or gajim on desktop.
calls work well, but android doesn’t treat it as an actual phone call (home assistant automations based on phone state won’t work)
and I’ve just now gotten direct messaging tied into home assistant, so i can use it for general notifications. it’d be awesome to get encryption though.
omemo is a bit of a pain, but they’ve all caught on.
but yeah i mean, very little hassle

- Comment on Is (Matrix) Element Server Suite overkill for a dozen users? 5 weeks ago:
not that i can think of? i pop over to look at storage space every so often and it doesn’t look like it’s growing very much.
inviting people is easy, directly from the android app.
the snikket app itself is pretty straightforward. The only thing I would caution is telling people using the chat service to make sure their encryption button is checked or whatever.
there are other apps that work with this, the one i use on android is conversations.
i haven’t had to delete users yet, but that sort of thing is done directly at the home page with admin login.
I had tried to use the Ansible playbook to get a matrix server up and running and failed for about a week straight before trying out Snicket and was texting with my mom across the country in an hour
- Comment on Is (Matrix) Element Server Suite overkill for a dozen users? 5 weeks ago:
been using snikket for a year or so. it is pretty slick
- Comment on Tempus v4.0.7 android subsonic client release 5 weeks ago:
get some DLNA or other OSS way to sling it to my house audio player (mopidy or snapcast) and I’d finally have to stop worrying about symfonium licensing hassles.
i don’t mind contributing, but what if i never connect that device to WAN?

- Comment on Self hosted music server that remembers playlist location and song time stamp 2 months ago:
symfonium kinda does this from android. it’ll grab onto your UPNP player and won’t let go until you tell symfonium to release it.
But as far as taking your playlist in from the car to the house, it’ll do it
