devlug.de is a Fediverse instance that uses the ActivityPub protocol. In other words, users at this host can communicate with people that use software like Mastodon, Pleroma, Friendica, etc. all around the world.
This server runs the snac software and there is no automatic sign-up process.
Actually, even if you don’t care about #UnifiedPush, having this minimal #Prosody server that just accepts messages via a simple REST API and sends them out via #XMPP is great alternative to the various sendxmpp scripts out there.
Since my new XMPP upload server implementation "Rusty Filer" has been working great on trashserver.net since two weeks, I present to you:
The first release of Rusty Filer! https://codeberg.org/thomas.leister/rusty-filer/releases/tag/v1.0.0 🥳
It has the same features as Prosody Filer, but it also available as a deb package and via a apt repository (for simple deployment and automatic updates!).
If you run into any issues using this server, let me know in the Codeberg issues.

Yesterday, I quickly put together a tutorial on how to replace ntfy.sh with a minimal, self-hosted XMPP server and published it as a GitHub Gist. Then I remembered I have a website and reworked it into two nice little posts:

Uh, uh, uwu!
The guide I’ve been working on all week just went online!
It’s meant to help folks using the new invite feature.

You’re admin of an XMPP server and you (just) enabled mod_invites? Then this is for you! Share that link with your users so they can spread the fun!
I don't have any experience with #selfHosting Matrix. From what I heard, it can be difficult, if users join huge rooms. But it should be just fine, if not.
I do #selfHost some #Jabber/#XMPP servers, though, both #ejabberd by @ejabberd and #prosody by @prosodyim and that's pretty easy.
From what I heard #snikket by @snikket_im, a dockerized prosody, is even more easy, but never tried it.
Maybe give both Matrix and Jabber a try and report here on your experience? I'm curious!
