Can’t comment on Matrix, but the Emacs subreddit was reasonably interesting and helpful to me.
There’s some drama there, but given the post-compartmentalization and voting mechanics I feel it’s a net benefit.
Cheers

I also had tried the IRC channel (on libera.chat, IIRC) but moderation was non-existent as well. Once I've tried reporting an obnoxious user, the IRC channel moderator (someone well-known in the Emacs community) replied after what was maybe days, excused themself for being busy and dismissed my report ("I don't see anything sus about that user" - well of course after so much time).
