Hi folks!

I‘m currently setting up a „fediverse vps“ so to speak but federation is no joke so far.

I got lemmy, mastodon and matrix running pretty stable now (in docker and behind nginx proxy manager which seems to be very rare).

The next step is enabling federation and so far it’s brutal. I broke matrix by changing up the .well-known stuff and now nothing works.

I think my knowledge is just lacking at this point. Does anyone have experience with a setup like this and wants to help? I basically need the npm config and/or other changed configs for federation.

Thanks for reading. Have a good one.

Edit: Since some kind souls wanted to help and need to see configs, here they are.

Let me know if you need anything else! :)

Edit2: Here is the synapse config

    I can’t help with NPM, but I had a similar problem(s) when trying to use Cloudflare Tunnels — which was an absolute pain to setup. What Matrix server are you using? Synapse or a community made one, also what’s in your .well-know and configs?

      Thanks for answering. I‘m using synapse at this point but I‘m not totally set on that. I need to get back to you on the configs. They’re a huge pain to set up. I kinda get why people are using ansible playbooks. Getting the homeserver.hjson and compose file to sync up and generally getting the configs of those to sync up and then needing srv records and custom npm locations really gets to me.

        I used Conduit, and it might be easier to setup, if you get those configs up for us I’d be willing to look at them still.
