I used to roll on the main matrix server, but I’ve been toying with the idea of rolling out a server for just myself here at home for a while now, since I can federate with other servers. Just disable making new accounts after I set up my own account and roll out.
I’ve been spending more time on my matrix server lately in preparation for abandoning discord.
I disabled federation because i currently run a server on a $4/month server but I’ll whitelist other small servers to fed with. If your username is a reference to CBB and you wanna fed up let me know. I’ve already invited a lot of the freaks to my server.
When people say “servers” on Matrix, they mean like an “instance” of Lemmy, right? Not a “server,” the way it’s used in Discord. I’m rather new to this federation thing and I keep getting confused because some services use different terms (e.g. Peertube uses “platform,” I think).

If you want to host your own matrix server, I can’t recommend this project enough https://github.com/spantaleev/matrix-docker-ansible-deploy
Super easy to run and configure. And makes managing it a breeze

Yes, a matrix server is an “instance” of matrix on the larger federated service.
Discord calling their different channels “servers” was really unhelpful because they were never servers to begin with.
