The specific nature of my issue is that there are a finite number of hours in a day.

If you go to the trouble of working on multi-year open source project it shows a lack of foresight to not include a quick install guide for one of the mostly widely sold hobbyist hardware platforms in the world.

Are you talking about the riot-web client? There are Debian packages for it, but even if you don't use those the client is all client-side JavaScript so you can statically host it. I will submit a bug report to add a quick-install guide to the README but it's quite trivial (untar into /var/www/html).

matrix-synapse does have quick install guides but a RPi is probably a bit too low spec to run a matrix server that will federate with matrix.org (though it depends strongly on what rooms you join and how many users you have).
