- cvwright 5y agoThe proposal that you linked is all about portable identities, tied to public keys. Is that really necessary for Element to host a server on a user's domain? I would have thought it would work just like outsourcing your web server or your email service. You generate a DNS name and point it at their IP address. Then they get a certificate and start serving traffic for your domain. Easy peasy.
- gary-kim 5y agoElement's primary paid service is Element Matrix Services [1] which is exactly for that. They run a Matrix server for you, optionally on a domain that you provide. [1]: https://ems.element.io/ https://ems.element.io/
