As an aside, I should recognize that right now I'm typing in a closed-source forum that used to be open source. The creators of Reddit wanted this to be a democratic place, where everyone could share, everyone could vote, and everyone could audit and contribute to the code-base. Unfortunately, the search for profit made it closed-source. All of the problems that I described above apply to Reddit as well. So do the solutions. That's why Lemmy is a good alternative and solution.
Matrix on the other hand is a joke security-wise compared to Signal. It doesn't encrypt reacts, it has a Web Client which doesn't make sense with E2EE, and overall the E2EE experience is so confusing and terrible normal people are very likely to disable it.
