  It probably is. They just close registrations from time to time. But other smaller servers are usually a better choice.

  There’s a couple of server lists I like to check.

  • tatsumoto-ren.github.io/matrix/
  • servers.joinmatrix.org

    I agree that smaller communities might care more about the users, but they often heavily depend on single individuals which is a heavy risk factor long term imo

      It is. We witness it almost every month here in the fediverse. But for the time being, unless more decentralized options like Briar, Simplex and Session become more accessible and reliable, a few federated options are the best we have available even if their server/node/instance admins carry too much power and responsibility over them.
