@gcupc @hirojin room directories aren’t centralized - each HS has their own. Same with user dir. What is centralized is finding users by 3PIDs (like email, phone number), but that’s being fixed with the latest releases of synapse. Each server needs to handle their own.

@zenhob converser.eu and the privacytools.io homeservers are open for registration. There’s also https://www.hello-matrix.net/public_servers.php

@kaniini I guess the best thing to do next would be to ask someone on the Synapse/spec team about it. Generally I find they’re very helpful when it comes to figuring this stuff out.

This is the same kind of problem Mastodon.social has, but worse

Why complain about a federated system’s servers going down when you’re literally not using federation by all conglomerating on one server?

@kaniini not sure if you’ve seen this, but maybe start here? https://matrix.org/docs/spec/server_server/r0.1.3#room-state-resolution

@Cobalt people complain so much about it, and I always recommend moving servers, yet two weeks later they’re still there complaining

Why do people consistently refuse to move from matrix.org when they know it’s consistently broken? There are other homeservers available.

For some reason nginx keeps randomly dying on me…

@acrata I honestly hoped that the massive selection of candidates was starting to dwindle out. Why are these people popping up?

@KitsuneAlicia I’m pro-bernie, but I absolutely will vote for the democratic candidate if that’s what it takes to get a literal fascist out of office. I can’t play with my own life or the lives of others by not voting on something so important.

Elizabeth Warren apparently has 9 billionaire donors. Compared to Bernie’s 0. She also thinks we need ICE. Every day my opinion of her as a candidate goes down.

@elomatreb wasn’t a rhetorical question - thanks!

It also really needs to have descriptions for some of the types. Like, what is a “Card” in Mastodon?

@kaniini you’re discounting everyone else on the thread discussing solutions and what sorts of changes need to happen past “revert this change”.
