A (big) memory incoming memory optimization in Movim

Timothée Jaussoin • pubsub.movim.eu / Movim • 13 February 2026

Before announcing some new exciting features for the users lets talk about the big incoming change for the admins in #Movim 🧑‍💻✨

Movim used to have a "one user = one php worker" policy. The sourcecode was fully refactored to isolate user sessions in those workers allowing worker to host several users!

This is the biggest architectural change in Movim since its full real-time rewrite of 2014 🤯

The goal of this change is simple: by having several users / worker most of the "Movim code" is shared, lowering the memory usage.

We are testing a 4 users/worker policy. Which saves 75% of RAM, pretty neat no?

There is still some quirks to fix, but it's coming soon 👀

Bye bye Discord , hello Movim

Discord is rolling out an age-verification system on its platform and preparing for its IPO in March 2026.

Beginning with a phased global rollout to new and existing users in early March, [Discord] users may be required to engage in an age-verification process to change certain settings or access sensitive content. This includes age-restricted channels, servers, or commands and select message requests.

A Discord meme

Today we are launching our very first campaign to help you to migrate from Discord to Movim.

To start with we did a little poll to ask you what you would like us to add to the platform to make you feel like home when joining in from Discord... and we were actually very surprised by the amount of answers we got!

A screenshot from the poll

So let's do it! 💪

Some exciting features were already added the past few days and more compelling ones will come in the upcoming weeks 👀!

We would like to have all the support we can to help us in the process so spread the good news around, follow us on Mastodon, subscribe, deploy a new Movim instance and invite your friends.

If you can we would be really pleased if you joined as a Supporter on Patreon... for the price of a monthly Discord Nitro subscription, 3€/month 😸.

This little extra money will help us free more time to focus on all those new exciting features and really build the best comfy nook for you, your friends, family or colleagues.

Stay tuned, a lot of exciting stuff are coming soon 😁

That's all folks!
