Is matrix good to use, seen a lot of drama around it. For example hackliberty.org left it because of lacking of security and moderation, do you still recommended it?

Well… there has been some recent museings about something like that from the CEO of Element, but it would effectively cause a two class federation where some servers can not work independently of others (likely in reality mainly servers running on EMS infrastructure, a bit like how in Bluesky you can’t really work fully independent of their infra, and yes Bluesky was explicitly mentioned as inspiration for that idea).
Having those two options fully independent would basically mean reimplenting xmpp in json as an incompatible alternative protocol and that would make little sense IMHO.
What is the source for this? Wonder just how worried we should be…
Some comment by the Element CEO on Hackernews, sorry I don’t have a link right now.
But since it would be optional I am not sure why you worry about that. It wouldn’t change the status quo, which is already bad.
