In my opinion, Signal's UX is better than Element. Element's distinction of rooms / communities is not great, and hindered by the user interface. Although, after checking out Element again, all the other parts of the UI that I thought were unintuitive were changed up, so it's certainly improving.

Particularly for the situation you described - small, family chats - I'd recommend Signal over Element / Matrix.
