I can't pronounce this name even after trying a few times.

[-] JadedBlueEyes@programming.dev 13 points 6 months ago

If you're British you can just say continooity. American English speakers have to say contin-uwu-ity :3

Damn furrys... stupid, sexy furrys... ~/pf~

[-] Lemmchen@feddit.org 2 points 6 months ago

Waiting for the next fork: Contin-ara-ara-ity

[-] PlexSheep@infosec.pub 1 points 6 months ago

Im German. English is not my first language.

[-] Hominine@lemmy.world 11 points 6 months ago

Anyone running this that wants to comment on the stability? I am using synapse/ap on my test container and was wondering if this is worth keeping a closer eye on..

[-] Shimitar@downonthestreet.eu 18 points 6 months ago

I run Continuwuity since day zero, actually since Conduwuit. Works great, super stable and very lightweight.

[-] smorks@lemmy.ca 3 points 5 months ago

Seconded. I believe I went Conduit โ†’ Conduwuit โ†’ Continuwuity. Very happy with it!

[-] JadedBlueEyes@programming.dev 12 points 6 months ago

We have over a thousand active deployments. We've got bugs, but we're working on them. I'd suggest joining our community rooms :3

[-] iamthetot@piefed.ca 7 points 6 months ago

One downside I found of Continuwuity was no SMTP setup for password resets, or new user registration.

[-] JadedBlueEyes@programming.dev 5 points 6 months ago

That is being worked on as you write :3

[-] iamthetot@piefed.ca 3 points 6 months ago

Awesome to hear!

I can't take this project name seriously. Like it's made by weebly pimply teenagers or tweens.

[-] orhtej2@eviltoast.org 3 points 6 months ago

It's a successor to conduwuit, so the name checks out ๐Ÿคท

[-] victorz@lemmy.world 2 points 6 months ago

What do you mean it checks out? That's just as immature of a project name.

[-] Railcar8095@lemmy.world 5 points 6 months ago

Well, it's consistent.

I honestly have seen worse, like czkawka, which means hiccup in Polish, and it's good to know because I have to check for the make on a translator every time I need to use it. Great application though.

[-] victorz@lemmy.world 0 points 5 months ago

Consistency doesn't cancel our the immaturity for me, sadly.

[-] ChaosMonkey@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 6 months ago

Victor, named after the Latin word for "winner", spends his time tearing apart "conduwuit" and "continuwuity", yet his own name sounds like a teenage brag: "I'm the victor, so I must be right". /s, but to me, that's what your comment reads lime

[-] victorz@lemmy.world 6 points 5 months ago

Alright, bro. I didn't pick my own name.

Read what you will into whatever, it's just my personal opinion.

[-] ChaosMonkey@lemmy.dbzer0.com -1 points 5 months ago

Sorry, but I find it immature of you to judge a book by its cover.

[-] victorz@lemmy.world 4 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

Fully within your right. First impressions matter.

[-] Kernal64@sh.itjust.works 5 points 6 months ago

I've been trying to get this running for days, but I've had no luck. I follow the install instructions and when I get to the last step of actually starting the service, it fails, seemingly because there's some issue with the config file that I can't figure out. I was hoping this would be a good alternative for ESS Community, which I had no luck with either.

[-] Jyek@sh.itjust.works 6 points 6 months ago

You aren't UwUing hard enough during the install.

[-] Kernal64@sh.itjust.works 1 points 6 months ago

That tracks. I've never actually uwu-ed before, so I didn't know how hard to go. ๐Ÿ˜‚

I guess I'll have to make a Matrix account elsewhere to join the support room so I can make a Matrix server of my own. ๐Ÿ˜… Thanks for the link! Hopefully they'll be able to help me figure out the issue.

[-] captcha_incorrect@lemmy.world 1 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago)

I tried to set it up the other day and failed as well. Looking at their docker-compose examples for reverse proxy, there are a lot of environment variables not included in their original example. After adding all those variables, the container started with a message about first registration.

I haven't tested more than that yet.

EDIT: Added it to my reverse proxy and was able to create the first account via Element.

What's your use case justifying the pain and suffering of self-hosting Matrix?

[-] philpo@feddit.org 3 points 6 months ago

Without Synapse migration it's sadly still hard for longer established servers to migrate/impossible.

[-] jimmy90@lemmy.world 1 points 5 months ago

i was just thinking the same

synapse is good enough though
