What about Threema? Open source, e2ee, easy user interface, no metadata collection
As far I see, Threema only became FLOSS in the client side and few things in the server side, the rest is still propietary software.
Yes, similar to Telegram. Still that opens a lot of possibilities for reproducible builds and bridging etc. and they are also not hostile to 3rd party clients: https://www.openmittsu.de/ Servers located in Germany/Switzerland afaik. Recently got a larger cash investment from a large German investor.
Yes, my point was only that and I apply the same to Telegram. It is a disadvantage for me and a major one.
