The Matrix.org network has great potential, but after years of dealing with glitches, slow performance, poor UX, and one too many failures, I’m done with it.
Its running about 1GB for me and my server setup. It spikes a bit if there is a lot going on, but it can get low than that when its just idling. Its not terrible, but given irc and other clients which take MB for RAM…its a bit of a hog-ish.
IRC is dead simple. You cant compare something like matrix to it in terms of resource usage thats not fair. 1GB of ram usage if fine for a server application that does messaging, pictures and video.
well there’s the problem, i have a small server available but it only has 4 GB in total and i’m also hosting other things on it, including a luanti game world
Im running the equivalent to a pi 5 so yeah it can run with a slight delay. You may have some issues with the spikes, definitely if its more than a couple of people. 4GB in total, you will probably have to figure out if its worth it.
Also updates sometimes borks the server. Ive stopped updating until I have time to really sit down and understand what changed.

So we need to bring back IRC, if someone doesn’t know how it works - well, I don’t want to talk with such person. Bring back gatekeeping

there should be a more efficient re-implementation but i don’t have time to even attempt that :/
Conduit is a Rust implementation that runs OK, but obviously doesn’t have feature parity
Yeah thats fair.
