This tool looks fantastic, thank you!

Synapse has seemingly improved since 2020. A word of warning though: if you join large rooms from your server, Synapse will eventually grow the DB to a huge size due to a “lookup” table state_groups_state, and will require manual cleanup.

Thank you for your comments.

Nothing irritates me more than walls of code without any comments and the “cOdE sHoUld bE sElf-DoCuMenTiNg” attitude. No, it’s impossible to describe complex industry-specific processes by naming your variables and functions nicely.

Xed editor comes close in terms of handling files-as-files, but I found it more cumbersome and buggy than Markor.
