Original Pull Request: https://github.com/community-scripts/ProxmoxVE/pull/7820

State: closed
Merged: Yes


✍️ Description

add an note for install bridges for element synapse, reason:
I just reviewed this request and I think integrating bridges directly into the Synapse script would massively bloat it. Each bridge has different dependencies, configs, and use cases, which would easily add 200–400 extra lines of code. That would make the script harder to maintain in the long run.
Instead, I’d suggest either writing a separate guide or adding a link on the website pointing to the official bridge documentation. This keeps the main script lean and maintainable, while still giving users a clear path if they want to set up bridges like WhatsApp, Signal, or Discord.
