A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.

Rules:

  1. Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.

  2. No spam posting.

  3. Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.

  4. Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.

  5. Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).

  6. No trolling.

I followed this guide to set up a Matrix server on my Pi. The only hiccup I ran into during setup was under "Setting up Synapse server," step 11, the "Registration" section wasn't present in homeserver.yaml. This server is meant to just run bridges to WhatsApp/Facebook/etc. so I wasn't too worried, and forged ahead.

I'm getting the title error when trying to connect via Element. Federation Tester gives the following error:

Get "https://[my ipv6 address]:8448/_matrix/key/v2/server": dial tcp [my ipv6 address]:8448: i/o timeout (Client.Timeout exceeded while awaiting headers)

Any help would be very much appreciated.

@Zoidsberg Are you using ipv6 address as homeserver hostname?
