That’s great. Am I right in thinking another advantage matrix has over Signal is that with matrix apps you’re not required to have a phone number to create the account?
Matrix for one has lots of independent servers of e.g. militaries. This helps by getting funds into the project and it being tested in real life scenarios.
Also there are lots of small servers that just host communities, they barely interact with each other, but they can and sometimes do.
It’s not a deeply interwoven net like Lemmy, but it is decentralized, connected and just working.

Imo Matrix has the huge advantage of being decentralised.
Is it, though? Maybe like Mastodon which is as well in theory but still the vast majority is on .social and I think this is the same with matrix?
Not quite.

Your instance hosts a server with 4k monthly active users: https://tchncs.de/en/matrix
