@k900:0upti.meK900If you want non-federated15:10:39
@k900:0upti.meK900Just run Mattermost or something15:10:42
@k900:0upti.meK900Unironically it's a MUCH BETTER SOLVED PROBLEM15:10:49
@k900:0upti.meK900Because there's obvious corporate customers you can sell to15:11:05
@k900:0upti.meK900There's Mattermost, RocketChat, whatever that Discord compatible one was15:11:28
@lotte:chir.rsCharlotte 🦝 (it/its)there is no reason to use matrix non-federated, or if you have strict requirements on where data needs to be stored15:12:32
@k900:0upti.meK900Matrix is really bad at a lot of things that are trivial on non-federated-by-design platforms15:12:55
@k900:0upti.meK900 Specifically because it's federated 15:12:59
@k900:0upti.meK900If you're going to run non-federated Matrix, you get all the pain of designing around federation with none of the advantages15:13:19
@hustlerone:matrix.orghustleroneyeah that's what I have realised from day 015:13:38

although i have for a long while pretty much only used matrix for the chat bridges
15:14:09
@hustlerone:matrix.orghustleronethanks for telling me about mattermost i'll check it out15:14:10
@k900:0upti.meK900Honestly you might even want to consider Zulip15:14:45
@k900:0upti.meK900Depending on the use cae15:14:47
@k900:0upti.meK900* Depending on the use case15:14:48
@quadradical:federated.nexusQuadRadical (Ping / Reply) Spacebar is the discord comp one 15:43:44
@marie:marie.cologneMariei'm still confused why the german military adopted matrix15:46:55
@marie:marie.cologneMariemaybe because element told them that they totally need federation or something idk15:47:31
@lotte:chir.rsCharlotte 🦝 (it/its)yeah the german gov is weird like that15:47:50

i'm still confused why the german military adopted matrix
not just the military, germany's healthcare system also uses something based on matrix
15:48:16
@bandithedoge:matrix.orgbandithedogeeven the polish armed forces uses matrix15:48:31
@lotte:chir.rsCharlotte 🦝 (it/its) then again I'm surprised that federated messengers are somehow allowed given that they do just combine the chats internal to the agencies into one big one 15:49:02
@marie:marie.cologneMarie oh right i completely forgot about that one 15:49:36
@bandithedoge:matrix.orgbandithedogehttps://interoperable-europe.ec.europa.eu/collection/open-source-observatory-osor/news/german-health-system-adopts-matrix15:50:06
@marie:marie.cologneMarieGematik 😵‍💫15:50:39
@bandithedoge:matrix.orgbandithedogeapparently matrix was the most obvious choice that satisfied their requirements15:50:50
@cat:feline.supportCatBecause if you perfect State Res its perfect.16:18:54
@cat:feline.supportCatas in Matrix replicates the type of resiliency the internet was born out of.16:19:20
@cat:feline.supportCatAs in it makes sense for those types of customers if the math worked better as they have a fanatical desire for self hosting but also they like the perks federation can bring.16:20:43
