Both Mattermost and Rocket.chat are centralized services. This means
users have to create a Debian-specific account and might have to keep a
Debian-specific instance of the client running (if the client doesn't
support logging into multiple accounts at the same time). That is a
technical problem on phones.
What makes Matrix interesting for me is that it is federated and that
there is a client ecosystem developing[1].
I might be interested in trying to get a Matrix homeserver for
debian.org as an experimental service. Need to investigate what this
needs a bit further (and probably discuss the idea further on
#debian-matrix:matrix.org for now).
