Matrix address: how to give it? Should it be protected from spam bots? (matrix.org)

Personal websites often give an email address for contact, as a mailto:blah@blah.blah link. And the address is often obfuscated in a variety of ways to avoid its harvesting by spam bots.

If one wants to give one's Matrix address in a website, what's the correct way of writing it as link? is it recognized as any kind of MIME (like mailto:)?

And is Matrix-address spamming something possible and common? In this case, how should one obfuscate a Matrix address given in a website?

Lots of questions from a noob :) Thank you for your explanations!

Edit for others with the same question: as per @QuazarOmega@lemmy.world's explanation in the comments, the Matrix address can be given as the link
