Well it is me tooting the horn. I feel a balanced aproach is federation ( I hear "duh!"). A central node makes it convenient & fast yet for the sake of not giving power to one th3 nodes are to be distributed to serve there local/thematic community where the locals can also interact with other nodes and people there.

Few easy to implement (relatively) chats are matrix, xmpp, Delta chat + own email server.
