Matrix 2.0: How we’re making Matrix go voom

Using an official build of element makes it feel less open, unless the builds are reproducible. Are they?

To me it looks like they come with proprietary stuff: https://element.io/pricing

Especially Group Sync seems like something to drive you into their paid offerings, I assume by keeping the code close to the vest.

How did you install Gitlab without an official build (such as the official docker images and Debian packages from their own APT repo)?

Man at this point you're just looking for excuses.

You can host bridges yourself too

This seems like goalpost moving.

You yourself say in a different comment that you are currently assessing Element: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=34779070. Either you have a formed opinion Matrix, or you don't. Which one is it?

You keep saying Element instead of Matrix, and obviating the whole Matrix ecosystem. Matrix protocol has several server implementations, and many more things around: https://matrix.org/docs/projects/try-matrix-now
