So I received my Librem5 devkit before the new year, but as I had it shipped to my office I had to wait until we reopened in the new year. As promised it's an IMX8 board with a screen, baseband, battery holder, hdmi port, ethernet port, USB C, and wifi …
Ahem. This should probably be titled with a numeric identifier since I run into the rough edges of the open source world all the time. Sigh.

So as I dig into the Matrix reference server and how to implement it in AWS, I'm struck by the idea that I need to implement the Linux based server as is with containers in AWS is wrong. AWS has a rich suite of features that seem to be handled …
