Why don't you just use XMPP?
(Leaving this here as a FAQ since I get this 'question' entirely too often.)

@joepie91 Been living the IRC life too long and recently Matrix while somehow dodging the XMPP drama so I don't see the turmoil.
That said, I've seen newfolks use it and seem happy so not sure what to think.
