I primarily access #guix on irc.libera.chat from gajim (xmpp client) over a bridge. 

I think Raghav Gururajan mostly uses xmpp bridges also for irc last time we chatted.

Regarding matrix clients,

Arun Isaac packaged weechat-matrix for guix recently:

see the following commit on master: 7ebed0cdc8043852bed7f5ca639f16bac30cc124

gomuks is a nice tui matrix client that I use daily when element takes forever to load in my browser:

https://maunium.net/go/gomuks/

I'm hoping to package it at some point. I currently install gomuks with nix...

It would be cool to self-host a Guix System deployed matrix home server at some point in the future.

Ideally, the server is implemented in guile instead of python (default homeserver), of course :).

There are matrix servers implemented in python, elixir, rust, go, ...
