So the original post had this added to the top:

> This post was updated at 11:15 a.m. Pacific time to clarify that the use case described here is a proof of concept. Some sections have been updated for clarity.

But then the bottom still says:

> Our team is using Matrix on Workers, handling real encrypted communications. It is fast, it is cheap, and it is arguably one of the most secure ways to deploy a homeserver today.

Which one is it?

Edited again at 11:45 to remove that as well. Now reads:

> I have been experimenting with the implementation and am excited for any contributions from others interested in this kind of service.

A few of the versions of the blog are available at: https://archive.ph/https://blog.cloudflare.com/serverless-ma...

I don't believe "Our team is using Matrix on Workers." The repo is in someone's personal Github and a pretty incomplete and insecure implementation.
I guess they're dogfooding something that's wildly insecure and incomplete internally. Kind of surprising that's allowed on CloudFlare's internal network if true, but I guess shadow-IT is everywhere.
