Other comments
This started happening somewhere in the last few days, after I had completely closed the Element client. I've rebooted a couple of times since the problem started happening, no change. I've tried reinstalling with it --reinstall, no change.
I can connect OK with the web client https://app.element.io/
Other clients like nheko can connect OK
I saw a possibly related issue, with similar symptoms that has been closed upstream.
