        Homeserver is essentially a distributed chat relay so clients post messages to rooms and the server relays those messages to its peers

            Official homeserver (https://phoenixim.site/) is hosted on a VPS and all homeservers are interconnected via federation

              Thanks.

              So the VPS acts as a jump start or bootstrap and then it’s not used any more?

              If so, then I must say nice job.

              If not then it’s kind of a not so decentralised, right?

                  Can discussions survive without it, after they have started?

      I see it has Tor as a dependency. Does it make use of onion routing? in which way?

        Official homeserver supports federation over onion services and dockerfile hosts homeserver as onion service that’s why i added Tor as a dependency
