Nice! Thank you Pato!
I would add the following:
RetroShare
- Asynchronous messaging: Yes.
- Antifeatures/disadvantages: Chaotic documentation.
Briar
- Antifeatures/disadvantages: It does not work with Replicant, as it
requires Bluetooth to add contacts.
Bitmessage
- Asynchronous messaging: Yes.
- Antifeatures/disadvantages: At current version, messages received are
not perfectly organized chronologically yet.
ZeroNet
- Asynchronous messaging: Yes.
- Antifeatures/disadvantages: Most of the zites require a
JavaScript-enabled browser to be functional.
Tox
- Asynchronous messaging: No.
Freenet
- Asynchronous messaging: Yes.
- Antifeatures/disadvantages: Slow.
Cheers!

Both Scuttlebot and Dat have LAN peer auto-discovery.
Although cabal
apps are quite new, I'd say they're pretty stable, given they are very
simple. I believe they are in English only.

Cool, I added this to the page:
# Cabal
- platform: Android, iOS, desktop via Electron
- LAN peer auto-discovery:
- functions: LAN and internet, text chat, channels
- stability/usability:
- languages of user interface:
- website:
https://cabal-club.github.io/
Can you fill in the blanks? And how does it affect battery life on
your
phone?
Also, I added Twisted, which showed up when I searched for "chat"
in the
LibreMesh packages. I figure a non-p2p option meets my needs if the
server can run on a LibreMesh router.

Revisiting this thread because we're about to have 6x more
people using

I have created a page on the wiki for this infor since I
think
that's a
more elegant and useful way to curate this information.
The wiki
page is:
https://github.com/libremesh/lime-packages/wiki/LAN-messaging-apps
The content of that page is copied here for convenience.

COPY OF WIKI PAGE:
What p2p apps do we know of that work on computers
and/or cell
phones
that can do chat (asynchronous?), calls, and/or file
sharing on
the LAN?
Peer auto-discovery is optional.
