# Start matrix with tor proxy:
# torsocks python3 -m synapse.app.homeserver --config-path /etc/matrix/homeserver.yaml

# /etc/matrix/homeserver.yaml
listeners:
  - port: 8448
    type: http
    tls: false  # <-- needs to be false
    bind_addresses: ['127.0.0.1']
    resources:
      - names: [client, federation]

# Note: we can't bind to '::1' otherwise we get the following error from torsocks:
# twisted.internet.error.CannotListenError: Couldn't listen on ::1:8448: [Errno -2] Name or service not known.
