    My family and immediate friends are all on my Matrix server.

    I have my own dedicated public server, so I can selfhost anything I want. And I do selfhost a lot.

      I selfhost since so long that some of my domains could vote, but I still need some “mainstream” channels to be reached by several people.

      If we can argue that close friends will put extra effort to contact you on whatever you use, it’s also true that your landlord, the plumber, the chick you picked up last night, won’t give a shit and simply consider you a lunatic 99% of times if you tell them to use anything non-mainstream.
