Is Matrix a good choice?

Considering that FSFe is using Matrix I don't think that is a problem.

Also this page was published in 2020 and in the meantime various things are changed (like protocol versions). Like Riot the client now changed name (I don't remember why honestly).
Another thing is that is FOSS so should be easy to confirm the fact that send data to matrix central servers (and what kind of data anyway?). In my experience vector.im is used for login authenthication but I never studied how works.

To me the real issues with Matrix are the UX that is very bad comparing to any other chat solution.
