Hi :) what do you guys and gals think about using Rocket.Chat self-hosted as a private messenger? Is this a bad idea or would it be ok?

Well… I started a GitPod instance few minutes ago and… it’s still not up so that’s not a great sign, cf https://github.com/RocketChat/Rocket.Chat/issues/33537 .
Trying Snikket on my server now. Curious to read about suggestions from others.
Seems Snikket container behind proxy isn’t a properly documented setup despite https://snikket.org/service/help/advanced/reverse_proxy/ so I didn’t manage either.
I ran it for awhile but the upgrades even in docker because unnecessarily difficult and annoying. They often rolled out so many incremental and useless updates instead of one large one every once in awhile. I abandoned it for mattermost.
oh ok. yeah i did some testing yesterday and it already pissed me off, that it asks you to register your instance… and so I swicthed to snikket :D
It would be ok, but a bit lonely, no?
Better look into Snikket.
