Featureset-wise it falls somewhere between IRC and Discord.
Does there tend to be logical groups for Matrix channels/servers? (Meaning you don't really just join Matrix, you go to a Matrix instance for Jerjoba support, or other common interest like Hockey?)
Matrix has a concept of “spaces” for grouping people and rooms into a unit.
