✧✦Catherine✦✧the business model of element evidently is "write shitty code then extract rent from governments and cops to make it less shitty"
is there any wonder it's as bad as it is

I know Synapse has few contributors outside of the Element company, but I just read this blog post about how Element is keeping the good Synapse code, increasingly rewritten in Rust so that it doesn't perform like a garbage barge, completely proprietary: https://element.io/blog/scaling-to-millions-of-users-requires-synapse-pro/ Why would *anybody* contribute to the legacy Python code which this post makes clear is not scalable and is not good enough to sell? Surely it's a self fulfilling prophecy.
