@dansup BTW #loops. I registered yesterday to loops but didn't got an email. What is the problem?

Would it be possible to choose a more digital privacy-oriented platform for this?

@dansup Couldnt have this been something else?

Can you please develop an open federated discord after you're done with loops,pixelfed and sup? That would be great!

@noctilua @dansup well no matrix has many problems on the libre side and the element company having effective control of the platform and clients. I will not use it.

@f4grx @noctilua @dansup What kind of problems on the libre side? All major FOSS projects use it for collaboration, such as GNOME, KDE or Codeberg.

> element company having effective control

They have control over their client, but there are other clients.

@Shatur @noctilua @dansup It's a nightmare to self host last time I checked, which is what I would like to do.

@f4grx @noctilua @dansup I never tried self-hosting it, but even if that's the case - it's a different issue.

@Shatur @noctilua @dansup No, if I cant self host it, they're making it hard for me to use, which means they want to keep control. thats out of question for me. Call me extreme, thats ok.

@f4grx @Shatur @dansup

Installation hardship does not inheritly mean control over thing in question. You are never tied to the flagship instance, nor to Element as a client; if you have hard time selfhosting it, you can alway choose a provider who went through weeds and enabled signups. Admin of my homeinstance hosts a Matrix instance, so I stuck with it, and I use Fractal to access it. I don't feel inferior to users of flagship instance either.

@f4grx @noctilua @dansup There are plenty of other instances, so I don't think it's that hard.

@Shatur @noctilua @dansup Thank you all for telling me how I can use matrix but that was not my concern.

@f4grx @noctilua @dansup That's not what I said.

You mentioned that it has libre issues and that Element controls it, but that's not true. By saying other instances exist, I meant that other people have figured out how to self-host it and it's not that hard to do.

@Shatur @noctilua @dansup OK, so the problem is in my initial description, but I still feel bad with this project even if I dont describe it correctly.

@f4grx @noctilua @dansup That's a totally valid complain!
That's sad, I hope they improve it 😢

You are not wrong in that it is tedious to self-host, never did this myself, but folks who did almost universally tell it's such a mess of a service. At least whatever that main Python backend, I believe people had better experience hosting the beta Rust one.

@dansup just out of curiosity have you considered making a matrix/element discussion channel or server ?
