No, mostly because the Matrix homeserver still needs ridiculous amounts of memory. Apparently 1GB if you want to join one of the more crowded channels – what for could a chat server actually use 1GB of memory?! That's a billion characters you can store in there, even at hundreds of messages per second (which I suppose would make the channel unusable anyways?) you don't get to a billion characters very quickly.
