Don’t go looking for a 1 to 1 drop in. That mindset won’t work much. Same case wit expecting windows to work the same as windows: they’re just different and have to be learned in their own ways.
Right, but it almost doesn’t matter because no-one is actually using matrix in the same way they might use Discord. It just isn’t being used socially for hobbies and interests and a part of that is it’s design and bugs and tedium getting set up.

Its buggy, it just doesn’t really look like Discord. It is a chore for new users to use. There’s no useful community discovery.

That sounds like a frontend issue. Not a protocol issue
