I ended up running the element-call stack for our matrix server. Has worked great for group vid calls and screen sharing so far. I don’t think it had audio for screen shares, the only item missing from your list

Hell yeah 😙🤌🏼

Oh god you got me looking up Ralph loops… Please, I don’t need this rabbithole!

I just did a long winded reply to your other comment before seeing this one. Seems like we landed in the same place! Hope the server is working well you

I did the same thing a few days ago, but I’m also pretty well versed with self hosting tedious-to-configure services. I would have spent hours rabbit-holing before setting up, and Claude just sped up the process.

I spent most of my time researching and forming an action plan, arguably the most important piece. Within two hours I had a Matrix server stood up with element-web, as well as coturn for calls. Setting up Element-Call for groups took a little longer, but not terrible all told.

I guess what I’m saying is if you’re experienced with a given task, it can be a really great tool to speed things along. If you want to sit back and have it run the show, you’re going to have a rough time.

Out of curiosity, what music software are you using on Linux? I haven’t found a DAW I’ve liked.

Oh man, my wife HATES the omelette episode, it’s too real for her. I tend to do better with the kids when we cook together, but it’s also down to the projects I pick. Making pasta from scratch is messy, fun, and you can be imprecise. Baking (her specialty) is not so forgiving.

Chores, I think, are easier to teach but harder to enforce.
