Ergo Chat – A modern IRC server written in Go

Ive been running matrix for small company/group for almost 10years. No need to use Synapse as there are many other solid servers (and have been for years). Matrix (the company) software like Synapse and Denderite (their “performant” server in go) are aimed at mega servers that federate and the features revolve around that.

If you want to selfhost just make it easy and get Conduit. Its single binary and uses embedded db (rocksdb or sqlite). I cant say about federation but for private chat server this has been solid for me for years. I still run it with sqlite (worse than rocksdb) and with 30 very active people its more responsive than Synapse ever was.

What clients do you use to connect to it? I just setup a Conduit server and can connect from my Mac via https://app.element.io as well as the official MacOS app, but the iPhone apps cannot find it somehow. Does that work for you too?

Nevermind. I think I got it. My server name was set incorrectly so that

curl example.com/.well-known/matrix/client

responded with an incorrect base_url.
