> I've run a matrix homeserver for almost 3 weeks and it as an utter pain to maintain, despite not a single version upgrade
As a counterpoint, I've been running a Synapse (a Matrix homeserver) for about 1.5 years now and it's been smooth sailing throughout, including the frequent upgrades. Maybe it's different at a larger scale (my userbase is 5-10 users), but if, as you say, you did it for three weeks, I guess you didn't have magnitudes more users than I have.

I've had 12 users I brought over from my mastodon instance. I've received multiple complaints about matrix from each one, half of them stopped using it after a week over the privacy and usability concerns.
