Matrix] Homeservers Setup and Maintenance
Hi Hacker News, Preamble: Matrix [0] is a protocol for real-time communication, most known as secure federated chat with client named "element". If you want to join Matrix you may use any public server, but any features, bridges, integrations, etc. configured by server admin, so if you want to add/change or remove something, you can't do that. In most cases, it's question about bridges - like slack, telegram, discord, facebook messenger, etc. That's why I started https://etke.cc/ What is it? Actually, it's html form ( https://etke.cc/#contact ) where you…
What it does
In the maker’s words, at launch
Hi Hacker News, Preamble: Matrix [0] is a protocol for real-time communication, most known as secure federated chat with client named "element". If you want to join Matrix you may use any public server, but any features, bridges, integrations, etc. configured by server admin, so if you want to add/change or remove something, you can't do that. In most cases, it's question about bridges - like slack, telegram, discord, facebook messenger, etc. That's why I started https://etke.cc/ What is it? Actually, it's html form ( https://etke.cc/#contact ) where you can select what you need from your matrix homeserver. After that we contact you and start configuration - DNS records, server, admin user name, etc. As result - you receive your own matrix homeserver on your server (anywhere), with all features that you want. Why? Because you should be matrix guru to setup it yourself with all perks (like coturn - try to configure it with synapse in separate docker containers), so etke.cc can help to (all items in the list below are existing clients): * people who has no idea what that server voodoo means * people who has idea about servers, but doesn't know matrix homeserver voodoo means * people who has idea about servers and homeservers voodoo, but doesn't want to maintain it themself * companies, who needs secure chat (alternative to slack) * companies, who needs real-time API platform * companies, who builds chatbots for multiple platforms But At What Cost? Pricing is simple: * Initial setup: 5$ once - you get your matrix homeserver and do what you want * (optional) subscription: 5$/month - we maintain and update your server & homeserver * (optional) consultation - 20$/h - in most cases used by people who wants to understand how matrix homeserver works and/or how to work with protocol to integrate it in own apps/services [0] https://matrix.org

Hi HN! Matrix-CRDT connects the worlds of Yjs [1] (a proven, high performance CRDT) with that of Matrix.org [2]. It started as an experiment, asking myself; can we store "state updates of a datastore" in Matrix instead of chat messages? Now, I'm convinced it's actually a really powerful combination to develop real-time, collaborative software. I'm using it for a new project and so far didn't have to write a backend yet. Matrix takes care of a lot of stuff: Authentication, E2EE, federation, hosting, etc. - so I can focus on the client. I love the ideas of Local First [3] software. Personally,…

Hi HN, I built Eigendrum, a web tool that solves the 2D wave equation for arbitrary shapes so you can hear what they sound like as drums. How it works: * Solves -∇²u = λu using finite element analysis (Kφ = λMφ) on a triangle mesh. * Validated to <0.1% error against closed-form solutions for circles (Bessel zeros) and rectangles. * Sound model factors in strike location, Rayleigh damping, and mallet width. * Includes Kac drums I & II to demonstrate identical sound spectra from different geometries. * No frameworks, build steps, or dependencies. Repo and tests:…
