What's wrong with just using matrix?
If you care about privacy and security, matrix has some glaring flaws. The biggest IMO is not currently encrypting metadata, so who you talk to and when is plaintext. The signal protocol encrypts everything, including the meta data.
Isn't this largely mitigated by running your own homeserver?
