This community is focused on games, of all kinds. Any news item or discussion should be related to gaming in some way.
2. No bigotry or harassment, be civil
No bigotry, hardline stance. Try not to get too heated when entering into a discussion or debate.
We are here to talk and discuss about one of our passions, not fight or be exposed to hate. Posts or responses that are hateful will be deleted to keep the atmosphere good. If repeatedly violated, not only will the comment be deleted but a ban will be handed out as well. We judge each case individually.
3. No excessive self-promotion

This is to prevent people from posting for the sole purpose of promoting their own website or social media account.
4. Stay on-topic; no memes, funny videos, giveaways, reposts, or low-effort posts
This community is mostly for discussion and news. Remember to search for the thing you're submitting before posting to see if it's already been posted.
We want to keep the quality of posts high. Therefore, memes, funny videos, low-effort posts and reposts are not allowed. We prohibit giveaways because we cannot be sure that the person holding the giveaway will actually do what they promise.

No one wants to be spoiled. Therefore, always mark spoilers. Similarly mark NSFW, in case anyone is browsing in a public space or at work.

I was looking into it, but to self-host with Docker you also need to run like 5 other containers or something ridiculous like that. I'll stick to conduwuit (Matrix) for now.
Edit: The example compose file for revoltchat/sefhosted creates 13 containers all using separate images. That's truly insane.
Oof. I'm already put off when I see a compose file that has more than like 3 containers, but that one really takes the cake. Two message brokers, two proxys, three webservers, two daemons and another handful of other containers? That's, indeed, truly insane.
Just because it's now easy to deploy giant stacks of server software doesn't mean you should.
Not to mention, the documentation to set it up was awful, it took me months to get it working and I still had problems with the MinIO container so it wouldn't upload attachments or pictures for profiles. Even getting past that, the stack required more containers added after the fact to support voice chat. I gave up when I saw drama go down last year about how the project wasn't fully open sourcing.
Yeah their stack is insane
