       TIL that the president of Signal believes that people who run Mastodon and/or Matrix servers do so "in most cases" on hyperscaler* infrastructure. This is my Mastodon server. And its UPS. And its networked KVM for when things get really hairy. It's also my Matrix server. And Nextcloud. And Git. And Home-Assistant. And Jellyfin. And SearXNG. And Peertube. When people objected to her claims, she doubled down and proclaimed condescendingly that we "don't have a clear understanding of this space". TIL that I don't feel confident in recommending people to use Signal. Something's very off here. *) "hyperscaler" basically means the big cloud infra providers with provisioning APIs that allow you to scale your resources up/down automatically with usage #Signal #Mastodon #Matrix #SelfHosting
