First I’m hearing about it
Yeah seems really weird that a service with 2/3rds or more of the users than Discord is completely unknown to me or any of my fellas on the group discord when I asked them.
Can't tell if I am falling out of touch, the service is aimed at a completely different demographic than me, or these numbers are bullshit.
It's used by a lot by organisations who want an alternative to Slack/Teams. Have a look at the client list for Element, arguably the biggest Matrix client/platform - https://element.io/
And as someone else mentioned there's also a huge influx of IRC folks especially in the last year.
