We ran RocketChat at work for a few years before migrating to Teams.

RC could be good, but maintaining it long-term was an enormous pain. Maybe it’s better now, certainly if you’re using docker… But a manual install was always a laborious task on upkeep for us. Also worth making sure you don’t need commercial features, as they’ve removed free features in the past to drive sales…

We’ve been running KVM on CentOS/Rocky hosts for our VM platforms; seems to work fine for our needs.

I’m not sure how ESXi would differ as I’ve never used it, but may be an option if you want to roll your own vs proxmox.

I’m sure we’ll keep using .intranet because why should we ever change?
