matrix is back. and yeah, sometime in the medium future i’ll look into migrating everything into a fresh install, rather than continuing to bash my head against this config which is clearly creaking and falling apart under a mere two-ish years of technical debt.
anyways, i’m going to bed. good night fediverse, see you tomorrow

might have to just move to an entirely new server to make this work. we'll see. in the meantime, i'm working on bringing it back up to normal operation.

every part of this entire stack is poorly thought out AND over-engineered at the same time. and the ansible playbook takes fucking ages to run for some reason.

i also really hate the ansible playbook i use to maintain matrix
but it's still easier than trying to juggle this shit manually. apologies about the extended downtime

i'm also finally upgrading to matrix authentication service, so (hopefully!) Element X will work with our OIDC setup. that'll be neat

i really cannot emphasise enough that matrix is steaming hot garbage, just in case you're thinking about alternate chat platforms for some reason or another today
