I've been using databag [https://github.com/balzack/databag]. The UI can still use some work, but it's really light weight and crazy fast.

I personally use databag (https://github.com/balzack/databag); it's open source, secure, and has no data collection. You do have to setup your own server, which if you already self host something else, is not much more than deploying a docker container. There are a bunch of other services to choose from, the most popular being matrix.org.

I used https://github.com/FaridSafi/react-native-gifted-chat. Not perfect but way faster than me doing it from scratch. Had a hell of a time getting it to play nice on a bottom sheet though, and still feel like I had to hack in getting the keyboard to show up right.
