I love the idea of a Matrix emacs client, but it doesn't support E2EE and probably won't ever, so it's a non-starter for me.

  Luckily, the good folks at Matrix have thought of the client support issue: https://github.com/matrix-org/pantalaimon https://github.com/matrix-org/pantalaimon

    I can confirm that it takes a bit of elbowing around, but you can get matrix-client.el to work with pantalaimon in its current state. extending the client to "know" it needs to talk to localhost rather than the server half is most of the stuff I had to hack on to make it work.
