TLDR: they're both bad, but it might be interesting to know what each one does

Thank you. I'm skimming through the site rn. Not quite clear on the steps to create an "instance" for a group

e.g., do you first get Element?

Edit: found this page: https://matrix.org/try-matrix/ that makes it a little clearer. If creating a secure forum is important for a team, do you have to create your own server?

Own server is always the most private, but you can use any instance and should be fine. Its e2ee, so you should have a way better setup as with slack or Microsoft
