-[[https://conduwuit.puppyirl.gay/|Conduwuit]] is a Matrix server written in RUST,  it is a new, well supported, lightweight implementation of a Matrix server. I also tried Synapse, the classic Matrix server, but ended up with Conduwuit that proved itself more lightweight and much easier to implement and maintain.+**Note:** Sadly, Conduwuit project has been abandoned by the current devs and archived. Conduwuit is deprecated, the following instructions are left for historical reference only, **DO NOT FOLLOW**.

 +[[https://forgejo.ellis.link/continuwuation/continuwuity/|Continuwuity]] is a Matrix server written in RUST,  it is a fast developing but already well supported and stable, lightweight implementation of a Matrix server. It is the continuation of the now dead Conduwuit, which was a continuation of the now frozen Conduit. 
 + 
 +__Note:__ there is another fork of Conduwuit out there, it's called Tuwunnel. The reasons why i choose Continuwuity are: 
 +  * Fully community based projct (Tuwunnel is sponsored by a for-profit company) 
 +  * Active community  
 +  * Fast response to tickets 
 +  * Very active development

 +To access the admin console, you need to type CTRL+C on the server command line. You can do this if you start the server manually and not automatically. So if you need the admin console to create the admin user or in general in the future, remember this.
