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!

    Yes it does. You can use it with a local domain. Setting it up would be marginally more tricky, perhaps even easier than a “real” domain, but using it would as simple as ever, on that LAN.
