Hi, I’m trying to set up a self hosted messenger and tried Synapse on a Yunohost server. As of now, I can’t log into the admin interface as I’m getting a variety of “forbidden” and “not found” errors. I tried with the “synapse” user as well as with the Yunohost admin user to no avail. Does anybody have an idea what could be wrong?

Dendrite seems to be a common alternative and I could get it to work on my machine. I would want a bridge to Signal, though - is there a solution available? All bridges I could find where for Synapse.

    I’m using conduit, it seems lighter then Synapse and easier to install. Bridges (also call appservices) are working fine (I tried may trick WhatsApp)

    Synapse is a common server because it is the most featureful, but other servers like conduit and dendrite work fine… Bridges are written to interact with the feature set of the server, so other matrix servers may not support all the same things that make the bridge work.

    Not sure about the yunohost setup, but there is a lot of documentation around the Ansible deployment and it includes every bridge imaginable, I would start there for a better supported solution.
