I know Synapse has few contributors outside of the Element company, but I just read this blog post about how Element is keeping the good Synapse code, increasingly rewritten in Rust so that it doesn't perform like a garbage barge, completely proprietary:
https://element.io/blog/scaling-to-millions-of-users-requires-synapse-pro/
Why would anybody contribute to the legacy Python code which this post makes clear is not scalable and is not good enough to sell? Surely it's a self fulfilling prophecy.

@jmc it makes sense - I think they want it to remain insufferable to incentivize people to pay for their proprietary version
