Is matrix good to use, seen a lot of drama around it. For example hackliberty.org left it because of lacking of security and moderation, do you still recommended it?

Depends on the use case an server.

Google and facebook do not yet have public servers. You want a trudtworthy server such that noone abuses your metadata like the time of sending a message.

It's very useful for companies like email but for real time communication. I'd prefer matrix over most other forms. In many companies and agencies matrix is getting introduced these days.

It's not anonymuous just like signal isn't perfectly anonymuous.
