Discord over Matrix. The range of features plus the style of the client. I like soundboard and emotes. its easy to setup a server and invite people.
You cannot setup servers on Discord.

While that is true, that's also not what people mean when they say 'servers' in this context. No of course they're not actual servers, but that's what they're called and I don't think anyone is under the impression they're actually servers
Internally they are called guilds, but "publicly" they're called servers. When you interact with the API you use
guilds, but the Discord client itself doesn't use that term - it only uses "Server" as far as I can see.Server sounds better. Guilds sound dumb.
I find a lot of admins forget or neglect bridges which can be frustrating
Yeah I feel the same way. I just can't get any matrix client to give me the same experience I get with discord. I know they're two different programs, and that if I started with matrix, discord would be weird, but still. It's annoying
