One of the things I love about Lemmy is finding out about new things. Now I get to figure out what matrix is!!!
Same idea as Lemmy except for chat. Basically Reddit is to Lemmy as Slack / Discord is to Matrix. One minor detail is Matrix is actually the protocol, so it's more like ActivityPub (which is Lemmy's protocol), and there are specific apps for Matrix which use that protocol.
I heard it's like Discord
No, it has some differences. We don't have channels but spaces, which in discord terms are groups of different discord "servers". For example you can create a Lemmy space with different rooms (matrix equivalent of discord servers) like general, coding, fediverse etc. Inside the Lemmy space. Currently video calls are a bit finicky but it's still pretty good. Especially with E2E. For a complete clone you can use rocket.chat
