That just makes it essentially the same as using HTTPS in 2012 or so. It may draw attention briefly, but then you get to have a conversation that might go something like:
"We ought to put this guy on a list for using encryption (HTTPS, Matrix) everywhere" ->
"We can't use dragnet surveillance because the people are on the list for evading dragnet surveillance" ->
"There's too many people to monitor, too many small servers to crack and backdoor, and the list is mostly just people running their own innocuos server anyways"
Subsequently, you may draw some attention at first, but if you spread attention thin enough it can effectively round to zero - especially if the activity drawing attention becomes moderately commonplace.
