Synapse for diasp.in

Shamil PublicSeen by 526

We are going to run a matrix synapse server for diasp.in. For that, ports 8448 and 8008 needs to be opened.

@isaagar can you open them?

@amardeepsingh can you allow these ports for diasp.in?

Shamil

Thank you @isaagar for opening them!

The matrix homeserver is now live! you can access it at https://chat.diasp.in/ Users can login using their diasp.in IDs :)

@amardeepsingh @isaagar Can you ports 3478, 3479, 5349, 5350 for the TURN server?

I think we should start periodic maintenance of the synapse server and database. Disroot recently faced lot of issues due to huge surge in resource consumption by synapse and we should take a page from their book. Currently, the best way is to purge history older than 6 months. This operation can be performed every fortnight or every month-end.

Would like to know everyone's thoughts on this.

what happens to the chat history in federated servers if they're deleted from the homeserver? will it get removed from all servers or is it just the HS?

Dhanesh B. Sabane

Messages only get removed from the home server. If a user scrolls back to more than 6 months on the chat history, the messages are pulled from other federated servers.

Bady

okay, thanks for the clarification.
