Hi there,
I would like to host my own Synapse server, but I am not sure where to start.
I would like to be able to use Nginx Proxy Manager as the reverse proxy and I’ve read that you can use example.eu for the username, while actually using a subdomain like matrix.example.eu?
Is there some good documentation out there and what would people recommend? I would like to run it in a container on Proxmox, but Docker could also be an option?
Doesn’t synapse need like, a server cluster to run? The self-hostable service is supposed to be something owo, I think.
No it works perfectly fine on a relatively small VPS. Ideally you’d want some redundancy for a form of communication but some people (like me) just wing it lol
Not at all. I have my instance sitting on 100MG of RAM and 0% cpu usage. There’s only 3 users that barely use it, but there it is.
It scales by number of users.
It’s true that it’s a resource hog, due to being written in python (who the hell though that), but it all depends on usage.
