Although Matrix might have a few kinks in it, I still think it’s the best choice for privacy-concious messaging. They seem to be coming up with good ideas; bridging for one is kind of functional, and I like the concept of federated systems. There also seems to be a good community around it, with lots of good libre clients in particular popping up.
Matrix is ok from a decentralization point of view, but privacy isn't a strong point of it and if fact seems more of an afterthought conflicting with many early protocol design decisions.
