Communities as in what exactly?
The Community Hubs for specific games or various groups that people made?
In either case, it's probably better to intentionally stay out of there, since you know that you generally dislike the content there.
Or, you could try to find a user group that has rules and moderates content in a way that you agree with.
But overall, Steam is platform for video games, which are generally considered to be fun, so it is to be expected that other variations of "fun" will be present there as well.

As far as I know, the Signal protocol was chosen to be the intermediary layer between the existing platforms. Matrix protocol was a candidate, but was not chosen.

Still, if you wish to use a bridge between Matrix and some other platform, then you can either set one up yourself or try to find a Matrix server that already has such bridge set up. https://matrix.org/ecosystem/bridges/

Will it have any fallback systems so that it remains playable even when servers go down?
if not, it is another candidate for stopkillinggames.com

Schools should be the first place where proprietary software should be replaced with FOSS.
Microsoft understands the "get them while they are young" method very well, understands that it is a very significant element of the cycle that keeps them in power, and therefore puts a lot of effort into making sure that this does not change.
So getting children to learn on FOSS and the concepts around it would result in very significant changes, especially in long-term.

Is there any project or organisation that is already trying to achieve that?
If yes, then it would be good to spread the word about them around the internet.

Yes, and there are probably other FOSS applications for that as well.
But it is a bit sad to see that Google considers the "phone" part of the "smartphone" be so obscure functionality that they left it's development to community.
Maybe I should stop living in the past and just accept that the glowing rectangle that we carry around is actually a tiktok machine that can occasionally do some other stuff as well.
