This is a Dengist community in favor of Bashar al-Assad with no information that can lead to the arrest of Hillary Clinton, our fellow liberal and queen. This community is not ironic. We are Marxists-Leninists.

See this GitHub page for a collection of sources about socialism, imperialism, and other relevant topics.

This community is for posts about Marxism and geopolitics (including shitposts to some extent). Serious posts can be posted here or in /c/GenZhou. Reactionary or ultra-leftist cringe posts belong in /c/shitreactionariessay or /c/shitultrassay respectively.

We have a Matrix homeserver and a Matrix space. See this thread for more information. If you believe the server may be down, check the status on status.elara.ws.

Edit: I have what I need to buy the modem now. Thank you so much everyone! This will really help.

Original MessageHello everyone,

If you use the genzedong matrix server, you may have noticed that it's been extremely unstable lately. That's because I've moved out of my parents' house and the internet service at my new place is extremely unstable and often drops out every few minutes.

I could fix that with a new modem that supports the protocols required by the ISP, which would cost 130€, but I don't currently have the money for that and likely won't for several months. If you use the matrix server and would like to contribute to its stability, please donate here. I'd really appreciate any donations. Thank you so much!

Running a comrade-adjacent communication server on a residential IP is probably worse for your privacy than using a cloud provider. Especially considering how many other instances will try to talk to yours.

I understand the cost argument completely. I'd only really recommend using a VPS for the Dendrite server, just so your identity isn't linked to the server...or at least reverse proxy from a cloud provider so your IP isn't exposed by running it. Would also be considerably cheaper than running the homeserver itself.

There's already a proxy involved. My actual residential IP is not public. The traffic itself is also encrypted end to end so the VPS provider never actually gets to see plaintext traffic.
