Does anybody here have a matrix synapse server on docker / podman set up with a database and redis, one or both?

I am looking to set up such a server but I could use some help / templates, as I found the official documentation on this somewhat lacking (or maybe I just missed the correct page).

I did a few.months ago. Quite a mess, but got it to work at the end of the day.

My experience is described here https://wiki.gardiol.org/doku.php?id=services%3Asynapse

Did you try the mautrix/whatsapp bridge? I had that working a while ago on an earlier synapse instance, but it was a right pain in the ass to set up and you still needed to authenticate it with a phone every couple weeks. It looks like it is being maintained so it might be easier.

I got put off by how complex that was and that you need to do exactly what you described. So no, I didn't.

I managed telegram tough, and still that was not the most pleasant experience.
