What about security updates? What about monitoring? What about the underlying infrastructure? What about even picking what software to use and configuring it?

I haven't heard of docker compose up guess-what-i-want-and-just-do-it yet, but I guess there is some LLM that can hallucinate one for you.

Obviously, having discord gobble up your data is more comfortable in any case. Still, its not that hard, especially for a tool as popular as matrix. I‘m not saying its no work, I‘m saying its not much.
