Hiya.
Because a certain country I’m a citizen of likes messing with international traffic, I’ve been increasingly aware of the fact web services can break here overnight. One of the things I’ve still yet to move somewhere more local (or at least have a reasonable backup plan) is messaging.
Matrix seems to be a decent enough replacement for Discord and Telegram in case things go south, but I’m a total brokie. What would be the be the least resource intensive server to put on a VPS in case I’ll need to do it, and would I lose out much in features (say, multiuser voice chats) if I were to use that least resource intensive server?
Cheers.
Do not enter very large rooms (especially Matrix HQ!) and you’ll be fine.
I know it sounds extreme, but you may want to ban Matrix HQ from the start and just infrom anyone wanting to join your instance if they are ok with that. This room alone is a spam anyway and it took >100GB of space on my database, cleaning wasn’t simple.
Write me a message if you want any help 😊.
