Disinformation Purveyor :verified_think: (thatguyoverthere@shitposter.club)'s status on Monday, 06-Feb-2023 21:33:04 JST Disinformation Purveyor :verified_think: @fitheach I've been using matrix for a few years and I quite like it. Element is easy for people to adopt, and for me the server administration has been largely painless. I hear larger servers with a lot of users might get a bit more hungry for resources, but this has never been my experience and it sounds like you have 10 people your considering hosting so I'd expect about the same.
You can always set up bridges for xmpp or other services down the line if you want to talk to people outside of the matrix network.-

If you arrange an element sign in party like you did with briar you can probably help answer questions, and all of you can verify each other's devices which is something I have not been able to do with all of my users -

There are 6 in our group. The combination of matrix.org plus Element is working well so far. Element is very easy to use.Disinformation Purveyor :verified_think: likes this. -
