That's great!

What about Matrix Authentication Service? That's still a separate piece of software that requires PostgreSQL (as opposed to SQLite like my Synapse instance uses) and has no clear migration path for those of us using our own SSO solution (SAML, CAS, maybe your own OIDC provider like Keycloak...), right?

I don't want to run Dex and complicate the stack further, either.

I think 12 hours to migrate is probably optimistic even with built-in sliding sync, actually...

Still its own thing which I have not deployed on my homeserver.

I've done this for testing but they really don't recommend it for production. It's had a history of being broken: https://github.com/element-hq/synapse/issues/18325

I've lucked out and haven't had any issues like that on my tiny home server.

I wish it were easier to be a Synapse admin! It seems like all server updates are focused on scaling matrix.org and the little guys that provide network diversity are not really being considered a priority.
