I still stand with Signal App.

  • Telegram has no default E2EE.
  • Threema's encryption was compromised .
  • Threema & Telegram both are for profit companies.
  • Signal is non-profit & all their source code + finances are public. Even their server codes are publically available

Even their server codes are publicly available

Last I checked, their provided server code lags behind their production server, so you rarely get to see the current version. However, that's kinda the point of E2EE, is you don't have to trust the server.

And one can always self-host or use a different server.
