Matrix won't seem to let me on via my vpn so I can't even download the client on my computer. Makes it hard to see what the fuss is about.

You're comment makes no sense. Matrix is a federated chat protocol, and works kind of like lemmy. Matrix itself has more in common with ActivityPub, the protocol that the fediverse uses. What's more comparable are the matrix clients.

There are many, many matrix clients to choose from, and even more instances, including the option to set up your own.

Idk what I did wrong both times I tried before, but sites would not load. Today, I got to the search for homeservers and was able to sign up.

Which client? There's a lot more than Element, including clients like Nheko and Cinny.
