To be fair, Matrix has been around a lot longer than Revolt. I remember the early days with Riot - and it was absolutely horrendous. Give Revolt some time, and I think it will improve quite a bit.
Revolt has been around for a long enough time to give basic solid functionality. Matrix does that, and the game is over now. It will be like Jitsi, where everyone just uses it for FOSS video conferencing, and other solutions fell behind.
