  • This is the correct answer, IMO.

    I loved using XMPP back in the day, but I struggled talking with people who weren’t on the same server as me because of spec and client variations.

    While Synapse is a resource hog, it (and Element) - to a certain degree - does the job. Can’t wait until sync v3 lands in the main server.

    The only issue I have is with one friend who insists on deploying his own version of Synapse, but can’t figure out coturn and - as a result - we can’t voice chat properly.

    Goddammit. Two steps forward, one step backward. 😅









  • They mentioned that they bought premium, so they won’t be seeing ads. Edit: Multiple people below are telling me that purchasing premium does not remove all ads, so that’s actually quite annoying.

    As an aside, I really don’t get the logic of using a service like e-mail and just expecting it to be free - it’s very bizarre to me.

    If it’s something important to you (as I assume e-mail is), pay for it - or stop whining about ads/nagging pop-ups.

    And if you can’t pay for it, download Dovecot and try doing it yourself - it’s a fun experience, and will make you appreciate the work done by email providers. Spoiler alert: it’s a massive pain in the butt.
