> (Recently they finally added the ability to require authentication for the media store, although they didn't add support for it to their web client, only their new Android one.)

This is not true. If it were true, it would imply you can't view any newly uploaded media from the web client. Here is the web implementation of MSC3916: https://github.com/element-hq/element-web/pull/27326

The Matrix.org Foundation has been steadily increasing its independence, with the recent introduction of the Governing Board (https://matrix.org/blog/2024/06/election-results/) which includes a mix of representatives from commercial players, the community, as well as Spec Core Team members and Guardians. Also, there are nowadays several Spec Core Team members who are not employed or contracted by Element, including some who are working for (near-)competitors in the space.

In other words, people are actively thinking of and implementing measures to mitigate the risk of accidentally/unintentionally backsliding into a closed standard.

Not directly related, but I feel that any references to Ansible being slow should be accompanied by a mention of the amazing Mitogen.

Oh boy, do I have a treat for you. Try saving the following as `input.md`:

    # Hello *world*
    
    ## Math
    
    $$x = 2 \cdot y^3$$
    
    - foo
    - bar
    - baz
    
    1. Yes
    2. No
    3. Maybe
    
    ---
    
      Right     Left     Center     Default
    -------     ------ ----------   -------
         12     12        12            12
        123     123       123          123
          1     1          1             1
    
    Table:  Demonstration of simple table syntax.
Then run

    pandoc -t html input.md | xclip -selection clipboard -t 'text/html'
And paste into a Google doc.

A lot of the problems were caused by the legacy crypto implementations. The misery is not caused by ripping them out and replacing them with matrix-rust-sdk crypto, but by it (unavoidably) taking a while.
