So I want to setup a messaging server in my home that works like Telegram or Whatsapp - it should use the local network as we plan on moving around a lot of photos and files between our devices for some projects

What should I use? XMPP? Or Matrix? Or is there something else that's ideal for local networks?

Thanks!

Mattermost is easy to get running, but the community edition makes it easy to mess up groups accidentally as there is no ACL (this is an intentional crippling of the software to make people buy the enterprise version).

Rocketchat is ok AFAIK (not much experience with it), but not so easy to install and get working.
