[advice] Hosting Matrix Server & Bridges
cross-posted from: https://lemmy.perthchat.org/post/516304
Hi all,
I want to host my own matrix server, so that i can run bridges to all the other (stupid) messaging apps.
I am looking for any advice or experience in choosing which server to run, and if you know of any good tutorials, run throughs, etc. i typically would like a lighter instance, as i expect about 3 users, with 2 of us needing bridging.
- dendrite
- synapse
- conduit
- construct
and then the addition of bridges, (Signal, WA, Messenger and hopefully SMS).
I am fairly self sufficient when it comes to self hosting, and i run everything on linux, in docker, proxied by Nginx proxy manager. but typically prefer stuff that works more or less out of the box.
Thanks all!

I set up conduit recently after struggling with dendrite and it’s been great - the conduit matrix room is super supportive, too. Real lightweight - I have conduit and bridges for instagram, messenger, signal, and irc all running on the same cheap hetzner vm.
hmm.. i have conduit up now, but struggling with the requirements to expose port 8448 to the net. And it needs to be https but is responding as http. so somewhere there is some SSL termination happening, but not returning as encrypted. hmm....
Jump in the matrix room if you haven’t already - lots of good wisdom in there! I used Caddy which was real straightforward.
