I am the admin of the newly created instance https://indie-ver.se/, and it’s been going great. But as I was looking to migrate all images to a S3 bucket, I noticed, the images take up more space than I had anticipated, a bit over 1 GB. And I know for a fact, that there has not been many images uploaded to this instance directly.

I’m planning to setup backup on my nas with the 3-2-1 backup rule.

Unless I am blind or my search-fu is hugely failing me, I cannot for the life of me find any information on the recommended/minimum specs to self-host the matrix backend services. I’m trying to spin up a VM just to play around with it and see if I like it. Specifically, I’m looking at Synapse or Continuwuity. Any advice?

Hello i am looking for a private messaging app to chat with my family, What would be the best option to use I want it to be decentralized, user-friendly and have good and secure E2E, I have used matrix and didn’t like it because of encryption issues, I am currently using XMPP but I am having issues with image uploads and image downloads, I am considering deltachat and it seems to be the best option, if anyone has any suggestion that is better i would appreciate it.
