  • I already self host my own matrix server. Everybody can’t do that, but everybody can use someone’s matrix server. They can’t shut it down because it’s decentralised and federated. It would theoretically be illegal to use but I don’t see how they would be able to stop it.

    Email with PGP would then also be illegal but impossible to effectively stop. That’s why the whole discussion is so stupid. It only hurts the normies. Criminals and tech savvy people will find a way around it and still use encryption without mandated backdoors.








  • I use my self hosted matrix server and the signal bridge, that way I don’t have to do file backups. I found this to be more reliable and I also have the whatsapp bridge on there for people that I could not convince yet to use signal or matrix. Then I do daily dumps of the matrix postgres db and sync them to my backup space (encrypted of course)
