Even if Telegram has a Libre implementation, it still relies on centralized servers operated by a private entity hoping to make profit. For this kind of use case, I strongly urge to rather use something that enables you to run your own servers. The obvious answer for this is XMPP, aka Jabber. Installing a server on Debian is very easy with the prosody package. The Matrix project is supposed to be some kind of successor and extension. In theory it looks very promising: syncing conversations between devices and other interesting features. But last summer I tried installing a server with the packages in Testing and it just did not work, some kind of --generate-keys option was silently ignored and then the server refused to start for lack of keys, so I did not experiment further, but I intend to.
