How long did your initial sync take?

I grabbed Element X to try it out but my self host doesn't support sliding sync. There is a sliding sync proxy docker that got put out to help but not sure I want to set that up if it will eventually get added to main. Might have to just wait. ๐Ÿ˜”

I run it with a whitelist of other instances I do federate with. I have actually been considering opening it up.

I've been self-hosting Matrix for like 2+ years now. The setup yaml was a lot to get thru in terms of reading what each set of options did. That felt like a lot but the reality was only a few things actually needed to be set and/or changed to make it work the way I wanted. Thankfully Matrix documented all the options out.

Overall, I'm extremely happy with Matrix. It has very much been set it and forget it once it was up. I'm excited to see where Matrix 2.0 goes.
