I am not interested in new software. Why would I be interested in anything produced by modern scum? The SimpleX Chat that you linked to is a perfect example. It looks like typical modern crap. I would rather just use Skype.

Where can I find matrix chat groups, something like disboard? If no one can find my public chat, then it is useless.

I meant it more as in installing software that isn't on the computer yet.

They have a client that works inside your terminal. How is that "modern crap"? You can just ignore the mobile apps. Or do you expect mobile apps that don't look modern? Good luck finding that. And Discord itself is the best example of modern crap.

I'll get back to you as I discover the software more. Again, I think you're overvaluing this approach and there's no problem with just promoting your project on existing forums. You'd also be playing a role in a migration toward libre, secure communication platforms by establishing your community there. But it's up to you, of course.

Every server has its own public room list. For visibility, it's best to establish your room on matrix.org. But the equivalent of a Discord server are Spaces. (A space is a group of rooms that belong together.) There doesn't seem to be a public list of spaces yet; you have to invite people manually.
