# Notes regarding Matrix, a decentralised conversation store

As a lot of things require playing around with `/devtools` and raw state
events, this is where I collect those and other things related to Matrix.

Events are mostly named how they are used, but `retention` predates that so
`m.room.retention` is a symlink to not break either links or muscle memory
on terminal. `account-data` is an exception for appearing that way in `/devtools`
(kind of) and clients (Element & FluffyChat) have their own directories.

## Other notes not needing their own directories

### Account migration

* [EMS Matrix account migration tool](https://ems.element.io/tools/matrix-migration)
  * Centralized, propietary, service, works less well since Synapse 1.11.0rc1
    made PL50 requirement for inviting users to new rooms.
* [Variate](https://github.com/ShadowJonathan/variate) is planning to be
  a tool for *migrating between different Matrix server implementations*.
