I'm looking for something to share images and videos between small family group. We use mix of android and apple. Text messages are terrible for images and videos.

We were using telegram, now I want to see what lemmy has to offer. Thank you in advance.

I'd recommend Threema. It's privacy focused, based in Switzerland. You don't even need a phone number to create an account, they collect no data on you (claimed, but haven't checked) and the code is open source, under A-GPL 3 license.

There's a build for Apple and Android, for which you pay once.

I use this to talk with important family members.

I forgot to mention, it's easy to use, as it's similar to every other messenger app, so even not so techy members can use it.
