 Mathijs | but I have higher priority stuff lined up first | 13:54:42 |
 _hc | I use fastmail and am happy with it | 13:54:53 |
 Nico | We need a SRV record for the domain inside Riot (e.g. @nico:f-droid.org), an A and an AAAA record. Will write this down once I'm back to my laptop. | 13:55:11 |
| Mathijs | yeah, fastmail is cool, but it's not very cheap | 13:55:16 |
| _hc | tutanota could be interesting, given their support of fdroid | 13:55:14 |
| Nico | You can do it with mailbox.org, iirc. | 13:55:37 |
 Marcus (old) | In reply to @nico:dorfbrunnen.eu
_hc: Thanks. I would have voted for synapse.f-droid.org, in case we once switch to that other not-yet existing Matrix server software. But I'm fine with matrix.f-droid.org, too. I think that is more a reason for not going with synapse.*? because we want to keep the address when changing homeserver implementations. | 13:55:55 |
| Nico | Marcus (BubuIIC): But the address will ever be f-droid.org, synapse.f-droid.org would just handle that domain. | 13:56:38 |
| _hc | the domain name is not set yet, so just decide and mark it in that issue | 13:56:42 |
| Nico | Correct me if I'm wrong. | 13:56:47 |
| Mathijs | I'm actually not 100% if moving domain pointing the SRV record to the new domain would work, but I'm fairly sure it should | 13:57:54 |
| Mathijs | either way: if we ever move from synapse to dendrite (or whatever) we'll probably want to discintinue one and move to the next, so we may as well keep the very same domain name | 13:58:27 |
| Mathijs | though I guess having two seperate domains could decrease the downtime a bit | 13:58:54 |
| _hc | Nico: you should be able to ssh in now, check your email | 13:59:18 |
| Mathijs | that will mostly depend on whether migrating is faster, or the DNS updating is faster | 13:59:21 |
| _hc | I installed unattended-upgrades and https apt sources. I also disabled password auth in sshd. check the bash history for exactly what all I did | 14:00:14 |
| _hc | anyone ever used a tor onion service for a matrix domain name? | 14:01:38 |
| _hc | also, I added a 2GB swap file at /var/swap as insurance. if disk space is low and memory usage under control, it can alwys be deleted | 14:08:32 |

Will do once I'm at my laptop. Thanks! | 14:10:24 |
| Mathijs | In reply to @eighthave:matrix.org
anyone ever used a tor onion service for a matrix domain name? I know someone did that and from what I remember it did work | 14:10:24 |
| Mathijs | though I don't think I'd recommend trying | 14:10:30 |

That would be cool! Let's add it to the roadmap. | 14:10:55 |

Will add this to the docs. | 14:11:29 |
| Mathijs | you could even use matrix as a bridge to outside tor | 14:12:04 |
| Mathijs | by setting up plain federation, but have the client-side facing through tor | 14:12:27 |
| Mathijs | I have very little experience with tor, though | 14:12:58 |
| Nico |

That would be nice and I'll add it to the roadmap. | 14:16:27 |
| Mathijs | how did you end up installing synapse yourself? Since it's already in a VM I'd argue that a python 3 venv would be a good way to go | 14:26:37 |
| _hc | oh, meeting time today also | 14:28:45 |
| Mathijs | though we could also use the debian repo of matrix.org | 14:28:02 |
