Should we migrate the communication platforms of our FOSS projects (e.g., Python, Django, …) to Matrix? 🗳️

The idea of ​​avoiding the vendor lock-in is increasingly widespread 🔓

Migrate social networks to the Fediverse, self-host your blog, regain control of your Git repository, … 👏

I wonder if it's time to migrate to “an open network for secure, decentralized communication” 🪐

@paulox then my answer is "Absolutely yes, but…" not sure if Matrix is the answer for all purposes. Sometimes a forum, or a hybrid like Zulip, or the discussion/issues part of a Forge (Forgejo) may be a better solution.

But free/open, without vendor-lock-in: 💯
