I am searching for a selfhosted and secure (end to end encryption) chat platform for my family (5-20 users), possibly one i can host on a raspi.

Is matrix a good choice, or should i try something else?

IP was invented in the '70s. Sometimes older protocols that work are just fine.

Any particular problems you're having or have you briefly used Pidgin in 2008 and think nothing has improved since then?
