    Correct. https://matrix.org/ is the home of the specification and reference server. The most popular client is https://element.io/ but since it's a fully open standard, there are several alternate clients as well. You can try it all out using the element.io server/client and decide if it's worth standing up your own homeserver. It doesn't take a ton of horsepower to run a small Synapse (homeserver) instance -- a Raspberry Pi or free AWS instance can do it (https://gitlab.com/ptman/matrix-docs/tree/master/free-matrix-server).
