I use conduit. And really happy with it. Since I use 3 bridges the compose.yml is a mess. It works really nice. The sliding feature boosts all media files. But there is always something broken or misconfigured. Actually my WhatsApp bridge blocks all mediafiles and I was too busy to fix it already.

Conduit is long dead. Upgrade to tuwunnel, its successor, while its still binary compatible...
All bridges works fine here.
Continuwuity developer here - Conduit is reviving itself, and you can no longer move from Conduit to tuwunel or Continuwuity. You haven't been able to for as long as either project has existed. You might be confusing conduwuit with Conduit.
Conduwuit has another child? What the difference between continuwuity and tuwunnel?
https://continuwuity.org/ or https://forgejo.ellis.link/continuwuation/continuwuity

Thanks.
I am currently on tuwunnel, might consider a continuwuity migration in the short term future maybe.
Ibwant to stay clear of any drama but stay on a future proof solution if possible.
Hard choices.
I believe the machines are currently struggling against the humans
Matrix seems to work well. I'm on a smallish non-profit server. I regard it as the premium open-source step forward from IRC.
The worst problem is that there are really no channels that I care to follow.
You might want to check out https://matrixrooms.info/, which is good for a search around. Some project communities also have offtopic rooms that are good to chat in. Even very small rooms can be very active.
As the end use my biggest gripe with Matrix is with voice communications, it’s almost as if you sneeze wrong you’ll lose connection to the voice group, screen sharing is horrible, no audio and the window is not adjustable, cant even make it full screen.
Now they’re reducing people’s usage by putting in a subscription and locking certain features, at least on the home server.
While I am disappointed they did at least take my advice and prevent Windows Recall from capturing people’s messages.
Synapse was too heavy on my resources. Moved to XMPP despite I like Matrix more.
