Best FOSS Local Messenger Service? (beehaw.org)

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!

I've heard good things about NC Talk. For work, it is supposed to work brilliantly. The one thing you might have to look into is how push notifications work. The default NC server setup doesn't support them, iirc.
