I can’t use them because I can’t convince anybody to switch with me. I talk to most people on discord and I’d rather move to using Matrix, but I can’t convince any of my friends or family or anyone I know to use anything else.

I use Matrix with bridges to Signal, WhatsApp, Telegram and Slack.
That means a single app that I can communicate on multiple platforms with.
My main conversations happen natively on Matrix but can also talk to “normies” on any of the others.
Self hosting? I just grabbed Element X Matrix client from F-Droid. I run a TrueNAS setup at home. I like this idea and will be researching it over the next few days.
Self-hosted, yes.
This is my dream setup for messaging as well. My problem is that I would not trust 3rd parties to host this setup, but I also have not gotten around to setting it up myself lol.
