Their claim is that regular Synapse will also get performance improvements, just only the ones for small instances, which might have been a credible claim if it weren't for the fact that I *am* on a small instance and it performs like shit just because I'm in a lot of rooms, which incidentally has always been the metric for "big instance" with Matrix, so y'know
@hans I'm sure they want that. But that's of no concern to the broader ecosystem, and this kind of thing is precisely what wasn't supposed to happen. They have been warned many times that their business and developmental model is unsustainable (with assistance offered), and if they insist on continuing it anyway, then I have little sympathy for the decisions that they feel they need to eventually make.
The server in question is running with workers (couldn't keep up in monolithic mode) but I do not administrate it.
