Afaik, Matrix is also a protocol on which you can build your own thing. To me that was always the biggest draw. The current “Matrix chat” is a reference implementation of that.
A group of developers can take the Matrix protocol and make their own chat app and an organization can be built around it to do operational work and support (hosting). Discord 2 can just be Matrix underneath, not Matrix in name.
