Matrix file limits are server-dependent, usually enforced for the uploader only. If you run a server you can set it to several gigabytes lol

'refuse to provide packages'

Open source devs usually are volunteers, you can't expect them to spend hours figuring out different packaging systems for repos they don't even use 😭

This is due to systems generators allowing Podman to plug in to that system

Honestly, this just seems like a consequence of alternative init systems not keeping up

Wayland is basically X12 in many ways

The Matrix Foundation and Element/New Vector are different orgs, and it's Element with the government contracts

"slowly being cannibalised" at the start the foundation was just new vector/element putting on a funny hat. It's got less bad as time has gone on tbh

Delta chat is hilariously slow. It’s less of an instant messenger and moreover next business day messenger. That’s ignoring the problems you’ll have running it on your own infrastructure.

Electric is not a discord clone and element has a customer base more similar to slack. And to end encrypted direct messages have been the default for years now in Matrix.

What? I dispute this post. The giant jar of Skippy in my cupboard disproves it conclusively. It's right next to the strawberry jam and the mango chutney.
