I haven't used a Matrix server since my short, but regrettable, stint as Lord President of Gallifrey.

I use my own. The group I GM for wanted off Discord for privacy reasons, so I spun up my own server.
Just matrix.org, like some kind of pleb.
I only have an account so I could join in one room, and that's the server that the room was on, so I decided to keep things simple.
This is the exact problem with the Fediverse. The first thing you need to do is make a decision for which the consequences are unknown. It's overwhelming and off-putting.
Irc still. No matrix so far.
Why's that? Simplicity and low overhead? Or is it an "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" situation?
Irc works fine, people I know are there, and matrix has always seemed too attention -seeky for my tastes.
Hm. Elaborate on that. I’m trying to learn more about the space.
I set up my own because I don't want to be dependent on someone else.
Normally matrix servers don't block each other they let their users do it instead.
