like with all things there is a solution: using terraform to manage the channels in the space

the terraform provider creates and owns the channel. it is the only user with the right to turn on encryption for said channels. voila. this is a perfectly reasonable solution.

matrix E2EE channels are fucking stupid because they leak all sorts of metadata
for example, the topic is unencrypted
reactions are unencrypted
replies reference unencrypted MXIDs so you can tell what is being replied to even if the payload itself is encrypted
do not use them. do not waste your time on them. it is not worth it.
