(They do need the funding tbf, but they also made themselves a famously 'overweight' protocol, soooooo... 馃し )

@Gargron @Linux_in_a_Bit We're experimenting with things people are willing to pay to have increased rate limits on. As a community organizer I frequently find myself needing to send lots of invites!

Feedback welcome! We're figuring it out. Ultimately, we just want to defray the cost of running the server, extend runway enough to improve funding overall, so we can continue investing in open governance, filling gaps in R&D (esp around T&S), nurturing ecosystem and de-centering our server.

@Linux_in_a_Bit@infosec.exchange their protocol is garbage anyway, I keep receiving events from rooms I left MONTHS ago because their state resolution algorithm is dogshit, and let us not forget this pricing change comes weeks before a critical security disclosure in their protocol anyway, absolute trash fire that isn't worth touching
