Zulip hit’s the sweet spot for me, as it’s pretty straight forward to use and not too many bangs and whistle’s.

Alternatively I’m also very happy with signal for communicating with other ones where Idon’t have to vother about user management too much.

Not FOSS anymore. More like open core these days.

I did have a chat with one of the Element sales people a few months back and based on the conversation, it sounded that Dendrite is not anywhere on their roadmap to invest any resources.

Running Silverblue here and only one minor issue due to the wifi mac address changes and locking myself out of my network.

I also realised, that the upgrade didn’t like it when Ihade packages removed from the base which resulted in broken dependencies.

After resetting it upgrading went without any glitch.

+1 for Gandi, as they also have an API for management as well and support ACME DNS challenge for Let’s encrypt.

It’s great to see more and more tools around restic.

DejaDup also recently added restic support.

Does not have all the features you listed, but I used Rustypaste in the past for sharing all kind of things and was quite happy with it.

Similar setup here with additional exporters like cadvisor for container metrics and other components.

OpenTelemetry is awesome, but still a very fast moving project. Expect therefore more frequent updates and changes compared to more older and established projects.

I think what you are looking for is

${DBX_CONTAINER_HOME_PREFIX} or container_home_prefix=…

Nice catch and thanks for sharing. Will definitely check it out.

Fully agree to this summary. traefik also gave me a hard time initially, but once you have the quirks worked out, it works as promised.

Caddy is absolutely on my list as an alternative, but the lack of docker label support is currently the main roadblocker for me.

Did use tt-rss in the past but switched over to miniflux, as I just wanted something more resource friendly.

You can also have a look at contabo as well.

Will have a look. Thanks.

Fedora Silverblue. But when switching I had to wrap my head around the differences in the workflow of doing things. Once youre past that it’s rock solid and had no issues so far.

Got it. Thanks.

Zulip looks like a good alternative for us due to the available integrations which we also will take for a spin. And there is always XMPP of course, but I’m not a huge fan of it as all the Clients seem rather outdated.

What other better options would you consider instead of Matrix? Happy to hear your suggestions ;)

I also looked into this option and was wondering how it might collide with our existing Ansible playbooks, as Ansible itself is not declarative and some tasks might overwrite existing functionality.

That’s a valid point. Initially we were thinking of running without federation, just to avoid that someone creates a public room by accident and have all the internal communication out there.

I’m not sure if this is a valid fear, as I haven’t looked too deep into the permission options yet.

Initially Focalboard looked very interesting until mattermost decided to not support it anymore and leaving it’s future tangling in the air.

Other options I am also looking into besides the ones mentioned are

• https://vikunja.io/
• https://taiga.io/ (waiting on their next version)

Fully agree. Even though OP mentioned it, I personally find that the prices compared to others (Dell, Lenovo Thinkpads) way more affordable.
