So far there's been about 80% of people I've seen caught by not having Access-Control-Allow-Origin: * (or similar) on the .well-known file

Is something that would be added the spec?

yes and no:

yes - it would be something that would fit nicely as a reminder in the spec

no - we should have our own documentation on how to set up .well-known and not rely on the spec here. The spec is overly complicated for "I want to log in to my homeserver".

Just found out that if you get the error Invalid /api/v1 response it could be because you specified an identity server in .well-known/matrix/client which doesn't provide that functionality (e.g. synapse which is only a home server, not an identity server).

Definitely still an issue since the flagship Mozilla server ran into the same thing #12311

Closing in favour of element-hq/element-meta#1602 + https://spec.matrix.org/v1.6/client-server-api/#web-browser-clients
