Both Mattermost and Rocket.chat are centralized services. This means users have to create a Debian-specific account and might have to keep a Debian-specific instance of the client running (if the client doesn't support logging into multiple accounts at the same time). That is a technical problem on phones. What makes Matrix interesting for me is that it is federated and that there is a client ecosystem developing[1]. I might be interested in trying to get a Matrix homeserver for debian.org as an experimental service. Need to investigate what this needs a bit further (and probably discuss the idea further on #debian-matrix:matrix.org for now). Ansgar [1] https://matrix.org/docs/projects/clients-matrix
