Originally a federated E2EE alternative to IRC. But it can replace any instant messengers (Discord, Telegram, Facebook Messenger, ICQ, Jabber, etc.).
Sorry, by 'replace' I meant 'use as an alternative'.
Matrix has bridges, but they have to be configured on a backend (instance) and I don't know any instances that allow them at no charge.
