I am searching for a selfhosted and secure (end to end encryption) chat platform for my family (5-20 users), possibly one i can host on a raspi.
Is matrix a good choice, or should i try something else?

Not true about xmpp in general. There are modern clients out there.

Just for reference, here are my favourites on each platform.
Each support modern XMPP extensions, interoperate very nicely with each other, and (at least in my opinion) look good!
https://gajim.org/post/2024-06-10-gajim-1.9.0-released/ looks great these days. Give it a try.
https://movim.eu is also a really nice looking modern webclient

Lol, what? Did you download an old version or are you just trolling?
And of course Movim is a client, a web-client like I wrote.

There are literally multiple big screenshots on the page I linked and a big join button that brings you to https://join.movim.eu where you can chose an instance.

Matrix is slow on large instances, but that’s not the case here, especially if no federation is done.
And the issue with sluggishness is currently the main development focus with ElementX/matrixX that will become mainstream matrix soon. With that even the large instances are extremely fast.

And on which instance did you experience that?

Thanks for confirming that you’re full of shit.
Because there are very very few Sliding Synch (which is the part of X that makes it faster) instances at the moment and only one that has a major userbase…
