Group communication tool recommendation (lemmy.world)

I find that I need an easy-to-use text communication tool for a small group of family members. In a past life, I would've just ponied up for a private forum subscription on Delphi or PBWorks and used that. Today I'm leaning towards Rocket.chat or Element.

We just need to be able to share information and files about an event. Any suggestions?

Thanks for the suggestions. Now that I think of it, I’d probably use Skiff for collaboration. That may be an option here as well.

I just want to add that Signal is not associated with Facebook. WhatsApp is, but uses the Signal protocol. The creator of Signal actually worked with them to make sure they implemented it correctly. I totally get the aversion from anything Facebook related, but Signal itself, isn't.

I was mostly reacting to WhatsApp and Messenger. Thanks for the info. Signal has its own issues, but I’m glad that being owned by Facebook isn’t one of them.
