I’ve been running the same matrix instance since ubuntu 18.04lts, just upgraded the virtual machine along the ride, so that has to be +6 years it’s been running 24/7.
I have not once rebooted my server due to performance reasons (like a mem leak). And like last 4 years I’ve ran the instance virtualized on a hp thin client, lately on a hp t640.
While I understand the criticism towards synapse being a complex and slow, and element being slow-ish, I don’t feel justified saying synapse would need any restarts in general. At least I have never restarted it in 6+ years and my instance has been working without those required restarts.
Yeah, I miss the irc, too. I still use it via my matrix instance.
I’ve never had to reboot the server; I had to restart Synapse because if Memory leaks.
Are you using any bridges?
Anyway, it got too expensive to run my own, so I went back to Matrix.org. Now I’m mostly back on IRC except for a couple of rooms. IRC stinks, but Matrix has been nothing but a decade of pain.
