- go do some :P
- yes, seems there's a package for freebsd too https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/blob/master/INSTALL.md#freebsd
- no
- yeah, a synapse server with federation can get pretty resource intensive, mainly RAM and disk
- not really, as chat and microblogging are quite different, technically someone's feed can be gotten through rss, which you hand to some bot that sends it in your room
@cobra2 @claudiom a bot like that would only show toots, not do any interaction/posting
afaik there's no mastodon bridge for matrix, nor irc, nor jabber/xmpp
if you mean bridge to those:
irc https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-appservice-irc
xmpp https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-bifrost
both can be either selfhosted, or you can use them over federation from matrix.org for example
So I'm going to need to setup synapse and bots to communicate with the fediverse?
Are bots required for irc/jabber?
