So, I was told to not use Signal, so all that is left is Matrix. And I am not techy enough to have my own server and neither are my relatives, so Matrix.org is the only option

    both are good, even Signal. For private conversations, you only need to avoid Telegram and other obvious ones

      What are the biggest threats in telegram? Corporations, widespread scams or individual ppl closer to me?

        telegram has a lot of illegal stuff on it. Plus the ceo has been caught and this way, the whole thing was compromised

            your data can land at french police, who caught Pavel Durov. i only use telegram to track custom rom updates, for that it is fine. but don’t use it for private conversations
