Why is matrix expensive?
If someone uploads a photo or video, the server hosts it and sends to everyone.
Expensive
Isn't that how it's supposed to work? What's the alternate model?
I think they meant each server hosts the same files, not just the home server.
Here's how Fluxer plans on doing it: https://fluxer.app/blog/roadmap-2026#why-polyproto-and-not-matrix
Just don't federate, it isn't expensive then!
Of give each user like 50mb of space then make them use a link for God's sake
Can you choose to host it without video and limited image size?
You can limit upload size.
people think anything more than 2cores and 2gb of ram is to much. Plus there is a lightweight 400mb matrix but its ignored.
