Enable spaces?

[Thatoo]

If I want to enable spaces to give it a try, I should add
experimental_features: { spaces_enabled: true }
to which file?
/etc/matrix-synapse/homeserver.yaml
or
/etc/yunohost/apps/synapse/conf/homeserver.yaml
?
And then I should do
sudo yunohost service reload matrix-synapse
I guess?

I don't recall which one you should, but I added the following lines to /etx/matrix-synapse/homeserver.yaml:

experimental_features:
  spaces_enabled: true

systemctl reload matrix-synapse should be enough to reload configuration without restarting synapse, but you can probably do systemctl restart matrix-synapse

Be careful with yaml, use spaces and not tabs.

Should be enabled by default in the latest synapse BTW.

Should be enabled by default in the latest synapse BTW.

The latest synapse version of Yunohost?
v 1.34 in master or v 1.35.1 in testing?
I couldn't find the merge request that enabled by default spaces in Yunohost package...

In upstream synapse 1.35.0:

https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/releases/tag/v1.35.0

Enable experimental support for MSC2946 (spaces summary API) and MSC3083 (restricted join rules) by default. (matrix-org/synapse#10011)

And the upcoming 1.36:
https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/releases/tag/v1.36.0rc1

Remove the experimental spaces_enabled flag. The spaces features are always available now. (matrix-org/synapse#10063)
