            Bug ID: 433834
           Summary: Neochat fails on any https to http redirects
           Product: kde
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Manjaro
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: minor
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general

SUMMARY

I have a self hosted webiste that redirects
https://domain.tld/.well-known/matrix/client ->
http://www.domain.tld/.well-known/matrix/client ->
https://www.domain.tld/.well-known/matrix/client ->
https://matrix.domain.tld/.well-client/matrix/client. May I ask why neochat
requires https to be used throughout the entire chain even if the final url has
https?

3.

Both point size and pixel size set. Using pixel size.

Connections element. This is probably intended to be a signal handler but no
signal of the target matches the name.

EXPECTED RESULT

Neochat should be able to follow http to https redirects unless upstream
determined that https must be followed throughout the entire chain. I do not
know the expected behavior and I have already reconfigured my website to avoid
this issue. Official element desktop client does not have this issue.
