The move to Matrix was partly driven by their open source commitments - hi, The Matrix.org Foundation (npub1m9z…whzq) , hey yo, love you guys - but they mostly won on the strength of two things. First that their accessibility posture was not just unrivalled in terms of FOSS forums but that their team jumped at the chance to work with us improve it.
But 2nd: the moderation tools are unmatched. Nothing else comes close.
Once you have tools and process in place to ablate harassment, nobody willingly goes back to not having that.
