Why did you choose a bloated venture capital controlled project like Matrix instead of a grassroots community platform and proper IETF standard like XMPP?

I don't care ho a project is funded, only that it works. How it's funded may impact how it works in the future, but that's a problem for the future. RIght now, self-hosted matrix works great, especially if catering to a non-technical community. Basically only something like Telegram, Slack, DIscord, or Matrix satisfies our requirements in terms of features and UX, and of those, only Matrix is open source and self-hosted. So it's a no brainer.

Are you using synapse? I tried that one and it's really a burden to maintain.
