Hey y'all, this actually isn't self hosting related, but who have you had good luck with for paid matrix hosting?

Right now, I do enough tinkering with everything that I would be willing to just pay to host a matrix server for my friends.

Unless it really is easy enough to do it on a synology nas for text/voice/screen share...but do I need to pay for a domain still?

We are (like everyone) on matrix.org now but realize we need to move eventually.

This guy does a lot of Synology deploys:

Might be something to look over.

    Synapse is the Matrix homeserver, it handles everything except for the voice/video call features.

    Edit: it doesn't handle the web client either, but technically you don't need that for a working setup.
