Gregory's ServerIRC does better than that.
Even the worst and technically most backwards IRC, ircnet, has a redirect. So if you just point your client at irc.ircnet.com, it will direct you to the appropriate server.
Matrix does nothing like this.

@isotopp I'm not saying you are wrong. Only maybe that IRC had a little more time around to come up with that server list.
Also: running a federated Matrix server is costly. I'd say that not many actually are looking forward to new users. (I did not link our server for that reason, but a random CCC-related I found via search)
