Matrix is a protocol, not a software. Continuwuity is one of the few servers for this protocol.

Well thanks for at least explaining what it is, but isn’t Matrix already self hostable? Anyway what’s wrong with IRC?

It's based on conduit, which itself is really a lot better for self-hosting than synapse or dendrite.
I ran conduit on an atom d2550 alongside other services and it basically idled. Running synapse or dendrite on the same machine made the whole machine max out permanently.
Irc is fine, but not federated...
