I’ve never had to reboot the server; I had to restart Synapse because if Memory leaks.

Are you using any bridges?

Anyway, it got too expensive to run my own, so I went back to Matrix.org. Now I’m mostly back on IRC except for a couple of rooms. IRC stinks, but Matrix has been nothing but a decade of pain.

Yup! Someone else pointed that out to me; I thought you were talking about the puppets and missed that you were talking about Jabber.

My bad!

Oh. I did misread that. Thanks for pointing it out!

running your own server is super lightweight.

Not IME. Are you running Synapse? Gigabytes of disk usage and memory leaks requiring restarts.

I can use IRC

The fact that many Discord and IRC channels (servers?) block Matrix connections has drastically reduced its usefulness for me. When I was running my own Matrix server, I could have gotten around it by using a puppet, but Synapse is such a hog I had to shut it down, and most of the IRC rooms I want to use don’t allow Matrix proxies.
