Steps to reproduce

I am trying to run the app in the simulator using XCode 13.2.1 but there are many compilation errors type argument 'MXEventTimeline' must be a pointer (requires a '*')

I'm not entirely sure what this is but we have no problems building the app on our side or on the CI. MXEventTimeline is a protocol and using it as id<MXEventTimeline> is correct.

You also seem to be using a different version of the code: Property (nonatomic, readonly) id timeline; - needs a lower case P and MXEventTimeline conformance as per https://github.com/vector-im/element-ios/blob/develop/Riot/Modules/MatrixKit/Models/Room/MXKRoomDataSource.h#L141

If that still doesn't do the trick try the usual: clear your derived data, delete your pods folder, run xcode gen, run pod install and try again.
