 kevincox | I really like the idea of hosted bridges but I wish that I could do it from my own homeserver/account. I don't want to have my identity owned by a company that hosts some bridges.
I guess it would be less of a problem if my favourite clients got good multi-account support, but that isn't currently the case. | 17:42:07 |

Sumner Evans: I suppose bleeper is not deployed on NixOS? no, we are on k8s all the way | 17:45:58 |
| Mic92 | I see. I am currently looking in improving the k3s status on NixOS. | 17:46:37 |
 fzakaria | cool never heard of beeper | 20:03:37 |
| fzakaria | thats what i need lol | 20:03:41 |
| fzakaria | is it another Matrix thing? | 20:03:50 |
| kevincox | It's a SaaS that provides a matrix account and hosted bridges but they are based on open-source technology so you can run the bridges on your own as well. | 20:14:50 |
| fzakaria | so like Element but hopefully better ? | 20:34:42 |
 Dandellion | It has more bridges at least | 20:37:09 |
| Dandellion | including puppeting ones, and more radical ones | 20:37:32 |
 f0x | it's similar to Element Home rather ig | 20:37:35 |
| Dandellion | than element one that is | 20:37:41 |
| f0x | or One yeah | 20:37:55 |
| Dandellion | their client is a closed source fork of element with some custom UI for providing a richer bridiging experience as well | 20:38:40 |
| Dandellion | They do some neat things in regards to end to bridge encryption and letting users run the bridges locally if they want as well | 20:40:37 |

including puppeting ones, and more radical ones Puppeting? | 02:21:09 |
| adisbladis | Answering myself:
This is a richer form of bridging, where the bridge logs into the remote service as if it were a real 3rd party client for that service. As a result, the Matrix user has to already have a valid account on the remote system. In exchange, the Matrix user ‘puppets’ their remote user, such that other users on the remote system aren’t even aware they are speaking to a user via Matrix. The full semantics of the remote system are available to the bridge to expose into Matrix. However, the bridge has to handle the authentication process to log the user into the remote bridge.

| fzakaria | also double putting :) | 03:07:53 |
|  notgne2 changed their profile picture. | 03:56:29 |
| Sumner Evans | We also have E2BE on almost all bridges | 15:13:27 |

 nbathum (he or they) | Can someone help me change the #nixcon room main address back? to #nixcon.nixos.org? | 17:21:10 |

|  uver joined the room. | 06:56:56 |
| uver | Where could I ask about setting up a Matrix server on NixOS? This doesn't seem like quite the right room but I figured I'd start here. Would the regular Nix / NixOS room be a better place? | 07:00:07 |
