+# Maunium Synapse
+This is a fork of [Synapse] to remove dumb limits and fix bugs that the
+upstream devs don't want to fix.
+
+The only official distribution is the docker image in the [GitLab container
+registry], but you can also install from source ([upstream instructions]).
+
+The master branch and `:latest` docker tag are upgraded to each upstream
+release candidate very soon after release (usually within 10 minutes†). There
+are also docker tags for each release, e.g. `:1.75.0`. If you don't want RCs,
+use the specific release tags.
+
+†If there are merge conflicts, the update may be delayed for up to a few days
+after the full release.

+
+## List of changes
+* Default power level for room creator is 9001 instead of 100.
+* Room creator can specify a custom room ID with the `room_id` param in the
+  request body. If the room ID is already in use, it will return `M_CONFLICT`.
+* ~~URL previewer user agent includes `Bot` so Twitter previews work properly.~~
+  Upstreamed after over 2 years 🎉
+* ~~Local event creation concurrency is disabled to avoid unnecessary state
+  resolution.~~ Upstreamed after over 3 years 🎉
+* Register admin API can register invalid user IDs.
+* Docker image with jemalloc enabled by default.
+* Config option to allow specific users to send events without unnecessary
+  validation.
+* Config option to allow specific users to receive events that are usually
+  filtered away (e.g. `org.matrix.dummy_event` and `m.room.aliases`).
+* Config option to allow specific users to use timestamp massaging without
+  being appservice users.
+* Config option to allow appservices to use MSC2716 batch sending as any local user.
+* Removed bad pusher URL validation.
+* webp images are thumbnailed to webp instead of jpeg to avoid losing
+  transparency.
+* Media repo `Cache-Control` header says `immutable` and 1 year for all media
+  that exists, as media IDs in Matrix are immutable.
+* Allowed sending custom data with read receipts.
+
+You can view the full list of changes on the [meow-patchset] branch.
+Additionally, historical patch sets are saved as `meow-patchset-vX` [tags].

+## Configuration
+Generating a new config will include the `meow` section, but this is here for
+reference for existing configs.
