Pan won’t let you send plaintext msgs in E2EE rooms. If you don’t launch it, your client can’t connect. It doesn’t have any known downgrade vulns. You can’t downgrade an E2E room to a non-encrypted one.
I haven’t checked to see which of those apps spawns E2EE chat by default. Element does, and I’d assume the other client devs are following suit; there’s no reason not to. Likewise, i haven’t surveyed to see what UI they use to warn for unencrypted rooms.
We’re currently working on an MSC to better advertise what bots/bridges exist in a room so you can track whether any is likely to be leaking your conversation to an unencrypted system. This is inevitably going to be on a best effort basis though.
