That's the next thing on my list to setup. I want to get a synapse server up with FB Messenger/Hangouts/IRC/Discord and Slack bridges to bring all my messaging back under a gateway I control (even if I have no control over the actual chat services) and a unified accessible history.

I'd like to read about how that goes! This is exactly what I want as well. I hear synapse requires a good amount of resources

That seems to be confirmed by admins running bigger servers such as disroot [0].

It's worth sharing that the RAM and CPU usage requirements have gone down monumentally since the migration to python3.

Disroot's announcement was before the switch.

The team even talked about it with one of the devs in the latest Matrix Live: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ad3oqEo5leM

fwiw, i have another bridge Matterbridge, running on a free heroku instance: https://github.com/patcon/matterbridge-heroku

It's pretty great. (Not just for mattermost, but most major chat plaforms)
