Definitely continue the fight, but in the meantime, migrate to something like DeltaChat.

    I've run a matrix server with around 250 local users. The schema Matrix uses is fundementally flawed that leads to excessive resource usage, and the DB is very easy to corrupt. Plus, the encryption key management sucks in comparison to DeltaChat and SimpleX.

    Very much agree with the encryption key management. My friend group and I stopped using Matrix because the getting encryption right between all of our devices proved frustrating, especially if a reinstall or phone upgrade comes up.

    Federated servers, Multiple device access without the phone app being open, Decades old tried and true backend protocol that would be a problem to ban.

    Well I'm not the most technical but on SimpleX you have no user ID's, routing through TOR and running your own servers among many other features (like the one that adds a radom delay to measages)

    You effectively have no user id's with chatmail relays with DeltaChat. Routing of messages uses the default TCP/IP stack and so you can just use TOR if you want to. Mentioning a chat systems ability to use TOR, as if that should be a part of the chat program rather than the system it self seems strange to me.
