Matrix is not

With LiveKit for calls / screen share, it is for my group. Though I'm not saying it doesn't have issues.

will never be

Community-developed homeservers like continuwuity have gotten a lot of new support on the last few weeks. Clients like cinny are getting pretty close to a replacement ux wise (if you look at PR2599 on Cinny's GitHub, they are working on and will soon merge support for LiveKit in a way that is very close to voice channels).

I also generally think that the only way to replace Discord as an ecosystem where you talk to many people from different communities is a federated protocol, not a bunch of new silos, one for each community.

I've never used Rocky with a DE.

Curiosity Stream is fine if you are looking for a service that let's you pay to stream nature docs. The rest, I'd probably avoid. Some of the because they suck, others because there are better alternatives. Edit: Commented thrice due to app issues.

The bigger issue is that reports currently don't federate. A report will always go to the admin of your homeserver (which might be you) not the admin of the homeserver the room you're in is on, nor the admin of the homeserver of the other users. Most larger (1-2k people) communities get around that by just having you ping the mods in reply to the offending content, which is a band-aid. A spec for federated reports is apparently being worked on, but not yet available.

A discord server-like would be a space, containing channel-like rooms. The main difference is that rooms can also exist independent of spaces, if you _just_ need a single chat for some people instrad of a group of chats. You can set permissions for a whole space, it's just that they currently work differently than Discord. Members have a power level, and you set the power level from which each function is available. So, e.g. Sending messages from Pl 0 (representing normal users), banning users from PL 50 (representing moderators), changing server settings from level 100 (representing administrators). It sounds complicated, but once you get used to it it's pretty easy.

Made me look at helix, which actually works better for my usecase. So I guess I gotta thank him for that?

Safely is a spectrum. I’d argue that as long as you aren’t under active ddos, cloudflare’s stuff isn’t all that useful. For DNS, I’d take a look at desec.io.

Affine is a bit weird, and not quite FOSS (source available and you can self-host it following their terms). But it fits a gap no one else quite fills, and I’ve been hosting it for a few people for a while.

Have any of the values you described in your post 2 months ago changed?

SUSE is now on SELinux too.

I don’t know for sure. They announced it one day, but I haven’t really caught that much public discussion before that. It might also be more accurste to say they switched the default selection, since you are able to select the MAC solution in the installer of the desktop versions, it’s just that SEL is now the default selection instead off AppArmor. This was the mail they announced the change in: …opensuse.org/…/YN4TCBCU4A2V5G2MWR5EWYF46267BO7F/

No, they’ve been bought out by a super shady company years ago. They’re also chromium now. The original Opera team partially moved to create Vivaldi, also Chromium.
