I'm still looking for a good Matrix client (lemmy.ml)

is there any matrix client (for linux) which satisfies all of these requirements?

is not an electron app. (tauri or something else which uses libwebkitgtk would be acceptable, or even some web app i can self-host on localhost, though i'd prefer a native app)
has full text search of encrypted rooms
saves everything (ideally including attachments) locally so that i can read old messages while offline
allows disabling read receipts, typing notifications, presence, and perhaps other privacy-hostile anti-features i don't even know exist in the protocol
is actively maintained

gomuks does have a self-hostable web UI i could use with a browser (in addition to offering an electron wrapper for it) but they don't indicate that they have search of encrypted rooms and/or offline support. (do they?)

Just Ctrl+F it will bring up search which queries the local gomuks.db

It cannot start in offline mode but it'll keep itself up when disconnected from your server. Might wanna feature request that one
