On the 2024 matrix conference the EOL for the sliding-sync-proxy was
announced to be 2024-10-15. While the repo does not yet reflect that
state, we should not be taking the the sliding-sync proxy into NixOS
24.11 under any circumstances.
This package was marked as vulnerable in
<https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/255959>, almost a year ago and
over a year after the project was archived upstream. The package and
module are unusable without bypassing a security warning in 23.05,
23.11, and 24.05.
Given that the package is intended as an organizer for
potentially‐untrusted media files, the vulnerability is critical and
leads to remote code execution, and there is basically no prospect
of upstream releasing a fix, remove the package and module entirely
for 24.11.
This is a full rewrite independent of the previously removed cryptpad
module, managing cryptpad's config in RFC0042 along with a shiny test.
Upstream cryptpad provides two nginx configs, with many optimizations
and complex settings; this uses the easier variant for now but
improvements (e.g. serving blocks and js files directly through nginx)
should be possible with a bit of work and care about http headers.
the /checkup page of cryptpad passes all tests except HSTS, we don't
seem to have any nginx config with HSTS enabled in nixpkgs so leave this
as is for now.

mkAliasOptionModule should not default to mdDoc descriptions because
that can break out-of-tree users of documentation infrastructure. add an
explicitly-MD variant for now, to be removed some time after the MD
transition is complete.
