I'd tried matix but without a high level of technical experience it was pretty difficult to setup. I got as far as docker, that needed ansible, that wouldn't compile. I also recall there was services I could pay for, but then I'd rely on them to provide the security/servers.
Matrix doesn't seem for the majority of people taking a first step away from big tech.
Snikket is meant to be super simple to self-host. Ejabberd has a web GUI that can make configuration easier.
