I just set it up today. The docker setup was pretty easy and I got the telegram and WhatsApp bridge running so I have all my messages in one place. Signal bridge is next.

Is anyone else doing this?

    I’ll have to look out for the media storage issue. Do you know of any way to clean it up periodically?

      I never looked it up. I used to delete media from the folder from a crontab when they were older than a month, but I had errors in the dendrite and bridge logs (though the application seemed to work “fine”). Don’t let it fill up though, because it completely fucked up my dendrite install and I had to reinstall and reconfigure all bridges from scratch when it happened.

      You have a parameter to delete media not used since a period of time.

      Look for the keyword ‘media_retention’ in the configuration page.

      The same logic exist for rooms messages, I’m currently testing these setting for my own server (mainly used to replace my discord reporting bots using webhook)
