I got similar results. However, fediverse servers pull data from other servers only after someone subscribes to profiles on them. I’m setting my own Funkwhale instance and when it’s up, I’ll try subscribing from Mastodon and then uploading something

Cool, thanks! Will give it a try

Neat! Element X is what didn’t work well with Conduit and made me search for alternatives in the first place. Gonna give it a try, thanks

I think that’s the only way to go right now. I thought of making a bot that just reposts toots from Mastodon to mimick Telegram channel chats

Delta Chat is working on exactly that

That’s so cool! If they manage to somehow provide support for reading older posts, it would be a straight up alternative to telegram.

XMPP is fine for broadcasting too

I think I tried XMPP before and there was no way to comment on those broadcasted messages. Is that still the case?

Thanks! Have you used Element X with it? Does it work well together?

Oh okay, those are important details. A community project definitely seems more reliable

Thanks! Which client are you using? Does Tuwunel work well with Element X?

Thanks! Is syncing the encryption better with Synapse or is it a general matrix thing? Because I’ve really had enough of it

Thanks for sharing your experience! Have you tried using Element X with either of those? I’ve tried Conduit but I wasn’t getting invites to new rooms on Element X with it. I guess it might be related to this sliding synch thing.

Got it, thanks!

Is it correct the same relay should be added to the instances I want to federate with?

Oh okay, thanks, I think I understand it better now

Thanks!

Oh wow, Lemmy Federate ezplains how I could see posts on small communities, thanks for the info!

Thanks! Didn’t know about relays, will try

That’s so weird. There is a pull request for Mastodon that fixes this so it’s definitely not about the protocol. I really can’t understand why this is happening…

For all companies and corpos to switch to Linux, it needs to become a new Windows, because the core difference between proprietary and free software, in my opinion, is not the way it is distributed but the way it is developped and used. It is “we’ll do everything for you in a centralised manner and you’ll just passively consume it” vs. “everyone is a creator, creating new stuff on their own in a decentralised manner out of the will for self-actualisation” philosophy. So I think truely free software isn’t compatible with centralised and uncreative type of production which most companies are. Basically DIY vs. commercial support.

matrix-conduit is much easier to host than Synapse
