I was looking into it, but to self-host with Docker you also need to run like 5 other containers or something ridiculous like that. I'll stick to conduwuit (Matrix) for now.
Edit: The example compose file for revoltchat/sefhosted creates 13 containers all using separate images. That's truly insane.
Oof. I’m already put off when I see a compose file that has more than like 3 containers, but that one really takes the cake. Two message brokers, two proxys, three webservers, two daemons and another handful of other containers? That’s, indeed, truly insane.
Just because it’s now easy to deploy giant stacks of server software doesn’t mean you should.
Not to mention, the documentation to set it up was awful, it took me months to get it working and I still had problems with the MinIO container so it wouldn’t upload attachments or pictures for profiles. Even getting past that, the stack required more containers added after the fact to support voice chat. I gave up when I saw drama go down last year about how the project wasn’t fully open sourcing.
I really want revolt to succeed due to Discords horrendous gate keeping and privacy issues.
I convinced a few friends to use Revolt but it’s in a bit of a feature lull. You can’t ring folks when you make a call, our calls often dropped without any indication (and required reopening to fix), and the input/output constantly had issues with selection. This doesn’t include a myriad of other smaller bugs I encountered. These were all the same bugs and UX issues I encountered in 2023 when I tried it then.
Gonna keep an eye on it and keep using it but I’m hoping with Discords enshittification more devs will be able to contribute.
it lacks some of the few good features that discord actually has like seeing who’s in a voice chat before popping in and soundboards in voice chat.
from what I remember they use Jitsi calls. I love that Jitsi exists as an alternative to Zoom but compared to Discord it is indeed a subpar experience. when calling with friends over VPN it is an unusable option due to the lag. this might admittedly be due to us using a free instance I found over a commercial option like Discord has
And I can’t claim any ownership of this, this is purely Gardiner’s server! I just…happen to know a lot of the devs and creators in the space, and I’m slowly inviting them in because - well I guess a place like this, more focused and small where we can chat about what we love: developing for Linux, and gaming on Linux might be a nice thing!
I’d just encourage you to make a throwaway account (if you’re so inclined!) and ask in the server yourself! No one can answer better than Gardiner can :)
This is literally like…idk 2 hours old at this point. No ‘big’ posts have been made, just me prodding the odd folk (like here) to join in and see if they like it :)
Yeah. I kept trying to type it as one word because I thought if the spelling was off I would get corrected, and Apple autocorrect just made it two words.
I have played modded l4d2 for so long that I forgot what the regular game looks like. My favorite is overhauling it to look exactly like ODST, but then you find a witch Osama bin Laden hiding in a corner
Game is pretty fun but once you beat gold stake it’s just an exercise in frustration. I lose most runs just because the game won’t give me anything decent to buy, not because I didn’t play correctly.
Yeah I was talking about for mere mortals. I’m no card counter but like I said, I beat gold stake so I’ve played a fair bit. I’m trying to finish out some of the other decks now and just find it tedious on the final stakes.
Of course there’s always somebody out there that can make any game look as easy as breathing. See: Guy who just beat every dark souls game back to back without leveling up or getting hit, once.
Having played almost every beta release, I assumed the full game would have had a different curve to it. I was expecting that by the end of the run my deck would be unrecognizable
