Ive been playing with matrix for the same reasons.
With matrix you can write "plugins", so that you can bring in chats w other environments - I was thinking of trying to see if I could run a echomail area via it - but too many other things to do first.
I started to look at Matrix but have not made progress, like you I like the idea of leveraging something p2p/decentralized/encrypted for
echomail.
If/when you start on this, please let me know :)
To an extent. FTN still has a central owner and particular hubs.
Something fully decentralized has neither.
