Thanks for sharing your experience! Have you tried using Element X with either of those? I've tried Conduit but I wasn't getting invites to new rooms on Element X with it. I guess it might be related to this sliding synch thing.
Yes, using Element X. I haven't been able to figure out the problem yet.
I seem to remember that you can sign in, but not register, with Element X and continuwuity. Should be fine with web/desktop clients.
I needed to make a chat server for a bunch of normie extended family members. They need an easy to use mobile chat. Registering on PC complicates things. Then adding the mobile client for authorised encrypted messaging wasn't really going to be realistic for everyone to do.
If anyone knows of a chat/voice/video self hosted app thats easy to deploy and use, I would be very interested in any suggested solution. Vocechat was not easy to deploy or get voice chat working....and the app sucks.

I agree that it should be easier. The problem comes from the element mobile apps migrating to a new registration flow that homeservers other than synapse haven't finished implementing yet.
If you use continuwuity, and it's few users, you could create users via the admin room. Then login should work. Still, annoying workaround.
And yeah, setting up LiveKit is a bit annoying. Maybe someone'll make a compose flow that combines all of them, but I am too lazy rn, and I haven't seen any from anyone else yet.
