I'll look into Foundry. Not sure what the specs are that I would need in order to host.
How would I set up a dice bot for matrix? Would I need to self host or is there an existing server I could create a space in?
The foundry specs are so low you can probably use a toaster for the hosting. The client (web browser) uses graphics for the tabletop so the requirements are a bit higher, but still every device currently available will be able to run it I'm pretty sure.
The main difficult requirement is the networking, whereever you host it will need an open port for people to connect to. I don't know how hard that will be for you.
Don't know much about the Matrix stuff, I've just seen it before.
Ok, gotcha! Thanks for the info!
Finally! A use for my 486!
