Review situation with Gitter sidecar usage on cypht.org after upcoming migration to Matrix

[marclaporte]

We added a Gitter sidecar (community chat preview) to https://cypht.org/
cypht-org/cypht#537

So let's keep an eye on this:
matrix-org/matrix-viewer#157

Historical context:

• https://blog.gitter.im/2023/01/16/gitter-is-going-fully-native-matrix-in-feb-2023/
• https://matrix.org/blog/2022/12/09/this-week-in-matrix-2022-12-09#gitter

Major changes upstream: https://element.io/blog/synapse-now-lives-at-github-com-element-hq-synapse/

This should be removed from all HTML pages:
<script src="https://sidecar.gitter.im/dist/sidecar.v1.js" async defer></script>

So now we are looking / waiting / hoping for a way to restore the previous functionality.

Any ideas?
Any volunteers?
