I've been using LocalCDN for about two weeks and I think I'm going to be a DecentralEyes user again, oh well x3
The problem is with how it handles Google Fonts. I'll try LocalCDN again when it figures itself out a bit more.

I did a thing? Yay I did a thing aaaaaAaaaaa!

(I forked glxgears and changed the colours... almost might implement argp and a help that actually tells you the arguments and keyboard controls later...)

Kinda just want to set up XMPP again... I heard there are even more clients available now. Am also interested in seeing all the new fancy features they've standardized too.

I've looked at the protocol. I was dismayed at XMPP at the time because it was all done in XML. Matrix uses even worse JSON over HTTP(s). {"errcode": "M_BAD_JSON", "error": "errors are JSON",}, and more importantly: user identity is tied to a Homeserver. They think removing the padding = from base64 encoded binary data will help keep message size down. For a while, video conferencing was just opening a mini web page and doing WebRTC.

Many group chats are unencrypted because E2E encryption is a hassle. Constant requests to re-verify devices and users. Sometimes I can't see their messages because I don't have their key???

There are only a pawful of clients. I've tried many of them; they barely function, are slow as hecems, and are bloaty. Most of them are Chrome. One of them is Chrome that renders everything in JavaScript, consuming large amounts of the GPU. The developer of the premiere "FLOSS" client will happily give your private data over to violent extremists that disappear folx. None of the clients I've seen have many configuration options. I'm blessed when a client notifies me of a message.

This year I host my own Matrix server, with the help of Desert. Setting up the server was painful and there was no clear instructions. The solution that made it work, I can't find anywhere else on the Internet. It required messing with Python packages. It consumes far more system resources than XMPP ever did, just sitting there. Over the last year, the server changed significantly and wouldn't start until I modified the config to suit its new requirements.

About 10 years ago, I ran my own XMPP server. Using XMPP/Jabber, I had an audio/video call with somebody on another XMPP server half way across the world with excellent quality and end-to-end text encryption with multiple, different clients at the same time. And also an end-to-end encrypted group chat where we could easily send files (with encryption). The server just worked. The client(s) just worked. There were multiple clients available. One of the clients ran in the web browser.

We got 9 tortillas in a sealed package that said 8 count. Today's going to be a day! Also it's morally correct to liberate from Nintendo.

I tuned the shared_buffers, work_mem, and effective_cache_size settings on the PostgreSQL server today. Welp I did my thing for today... sleeby time!

Am considering switching from DecentralEyes to LocalCDN. Anyone else use LocalCDN?
