Both .tk and .vu are free to use by anyone with minimal restrictions. Paid .tk & .vu domains have no restrictions

They didn’t seize it. .ml TLD was contracted for 10 years to some Dutch dude. That contract expired on the 17th

.be and .to are free to use by anyone as set by the respective countries registrars, anyone that registers a .it domain outside of Europe is just asking for trouble

Yes. Hosting a service in a country other than where a TLD is designated for is bad practice and common knowledge for any web developer

775. I can post media in my rooms and that works just fine, it’s just trying to set a PFP throws that error which is confusing. I rolled out an ansible node last night on the advice of someone else here so I’m attempting the matrix ansible playbook to get going

I haven’t played with ansible before but that looks like exactly what I want, thanks! I’ll spin up a VM on my dev server at home and play around with it

Ubuntu 22.04, bare metal. I followed this guide and the official docs as well as tweaked it for my needs. I posted my yaml in another comment as well

Heres my yaml. I quickly skimmed the docs and set it up last night so its probably pretty jank. So I guess my large channels issue is solved and I need better hardware. As for the the Error 500 I get while uploading profile pictures, this is the exact error I get:

Failed to save your profile MatrixError: [500] Internal server error (https://matrix.*.xyz/_matrix/media/r0/upload?filename=5db2-6c61-48eb-827c-f09ec246af71.png)

Sorry I should have added more info. I am using Postgres, I’ll post my sanitized yaml when I get home from work. It is a bare metal install at the moment but I plan on moving over to docker once I have a good understanding of all the functions and documentation
