gollark: There are some big servers, like the Rust one.
gollark: The main issue I have with Matrix is that because it needs to keep all the room history ever and resolve events with it, in big (thousands of people and long history) rooms your server might run out of RAM.
gollark: Your client connects to a homeserver. That then connects to others to agree on what a room has in it.
gollark: No, they hold all the data for the rooms you talk in.
gollark: Rooms aren't tied to a homeserver but distributed through some complex state resolution thing.
