Federation issues

I for the life of me couldn't get synapse's (matrix's) federation to work. It said that the encryption couldn't be trusted, i could join public rooms but i couldn't start any chats, i couldn't invite people to my rooms, i couldn't get invited to rooms.

How I fixed it

Go to your homeserver.yaml file

nano /etc/matrix-synapse/homeserver.yaml

and go all the way to the bottom or search for trusted_key_servers. it's probably going to be matrix.org. You should change it to the following by removing matrix.org and leave blank square brackets:

trusted_key_servers: []
