  • You forgot network admins!

    Also most of the other overlaps:

    Gamers and
    Sailors: constant swearing
    Connoisseurs: get told it’s not a real job
    Admins: bothered by ping issues

    Sailors and:
    Connoisseurs: always in search for the nearest bar
    Admins: Surfing in their free time

    Connoisseurs and Admins: explaing stuff to morons who just want to consume

    Gamers, Connoisseurs and Admins: their private equipment is top notch as well (and probably in the basement)

    Admin, Sailor and Gamer: the unwashed masses











  • We host a small Matrix-server. The server is for 4 people but barely uses the 2 cores 4GB RAM.

    Storage is mostly media, but stayed under 100GB in about 3 years.

    We also host a web frontend and use Schildichat as app, but Element X could be better nowadays. Both also have a desktop client.

    A big plus are all the bridges. My girlfriend uses WhatsApp, no problemo, there is a bridge for that. That one club only has a signal group? Use the bridge.
    One of us uses Fb-Messenger via a bridge. Telegram also works and there are lots more.

    The server is also low maintenance. It’s an ansible playbook, that I irregularly run.
    It takes around an hour twice a year due to changes in the playbook.

    Also matrix is feature rich beyond your requests. I don’t know much about the others, but matrix had emoji-reactions before WhatsApp and has threads inside of chatrooms and spaces which are collections of chats for common topics.
    Also polls, sharing current/live location (not bridged to WA), voice messages and stickers.
