-# Setting up Appservices
-
-## Getting help
-
-If you run into any problems while setting up an Appservice, write an email to `timo@koesters.xyz`, ask us in `#conduit:matrix.org` or [open an issue on GitLab](https://gitlab.com/famedly/conduit/-/issues/new).
-
-## Tested appservices
-
-Here are some appservices we tested and that work with Conduit:
-- [matrix-appservice-discord](https://github.com/Half-Shot/matrix-appservice-discord)
-- [mautrix-hangouts](https://github.com/mautrix/hangouts/)
-- [mautrix-telegram](https://github.com/mautrix/telegram/)
-- [mautrix-signal](https://github.com/mautrix/signal)
-  - There are a few things you need to do, in order for the bridge (at least up to version `0.2.0`) to work. Before following the bridge installation guide, you need to map apply a patch to bridges `portal.py`. Go to [portal.py](https://github.com/mautrix/signal/blob/master/mautrix_signal/portal.py) at [mautrix-signal](https://github.com/mautrix/signal) (don't forget to change to the correct commit/version of the file) and copy its content, create a `portal.py` on your host system and paste it in. Now you need to change two lines:
-  [Line 1020](https://github.com/mautrix/signal/blob/4ea831536f154aba6419d13292479eb383ea3308/mautrix_signal/portal.py#L1020)
-
-    ```diff
-    --- levels.users[self.main_intent.mxid] = 9001 if is_initial else 100
-    +++ levels.users[self.main_intent.mxid] = 100 if is_initial else 100
-    ```
-
-    and add a new line between [Lines 1041 and 1042](https://github.com/mautrix/signal/blob/4ea831536f154aba6419d13292479eb383ea3308/mautrix_signal/portal.py#L1041-L1042)
-
-    ```diff
-        "type": str(EventType.ROOM_POWER_LEVELS),
-    +++ "state_key": "",
-        "content": power_levels.serialize(),
-    ```
-
-    Now you just need to map the patched `portal.py` into the `mautrix-signal` container
-    ```yml
-    volumes:
-      - ./<your>/<path>/<on>/<host>/portal.py:/usr/lib/python3.9/site-packages/mautrix_signal/portal.py
-    ```
-    and then read below and start following the bridge [installation instructions](https://docs.mau.fi/bridges/index.html).
-
-## Set up the appservice
-
-Follow whatever instructions are given by the appservice. This usually includes
-downloading, changing its config (setting domain, homeserver url, port etc.)
-and later starting it.
-
-At some point the appservice guide should ask you to add a registration yaml
-file to the homeserver. In Synapse you would do this by adding the path to the
-homeserver.yaml, but in Conduit you can do this from within Matrix:
-
-First, go into the #admins room of your homeserver. The first person that
-registered on the homeserver automatically joins it. Then send a message into
-the room like this:
-
-    @conduit:your.server.name: register_appservice
-    ```
-    paste
-    the
-    contents
-    of
-    the
-    yaml
-    registration
-    here
-    ```
-
-You can confirm it worked by sending a message like this:
-`@conduit:your.server.name: list_appservices`
-
-The @conduit bot should answer with `Appservices (1): your-bridge`
-
-Then you are done. Conduit will send messages to the appservices and the
-appservice can send requests to the homeserver. You don't need to restart
-Conduit, but if it doesn't work, restarting while the appservice is running
-could help.
