Indeed. I had to wonder the same thing. This article could use a grammatical overhaul by @KGIII.

You could try asking them in their Matrix rooms. They'd be much more likely to respond there. Specifically, try #matrix-dev:matrix.org

I know for a fact that the Matrix people are working on getting together a Matrix app with your own server embedded, so you're always decentralized. As far as web hosting, that doesn't need Matrix. Just pop Apache on your PC.
