Description
Feature request for adding a matrix receiver to the available matrix reciever endpoints.
Context
Matrix is an open protocol for decentralised, secure communications.
You can read more on the matrix homepage.
Implementation
There is a stable bot-sdk for Golang, matrix-go.
Matrix also has some developer documentation for general concepts around the ecosystem.
The bot (AppService) user experience in Matrix is similiar to Telegram.
You may contact a bot directly or invite it to a room explicitly.
As such the configuration would likely contain the authentication credentials and chat/group ids for publishing messages in the appropiate channels.

Research direction

Define the Matrix authentication and room or group ID configuration alongside the message-publishing behavior, then verify that messages can be sent to direct chats and invited rooms through the receiver.
