I would say matrix but that is unlikely. Simplex Chat and Signal it is.

Matrix is in fact decentralized, SimpleX too. But Signal is centralized.

I won't disagree

Signal has downsides but it us still better than Whatsapp

Almost everything is better than WhatsApp

And yet all of my friends and family refuse to leave whatsapp no matter what because everyone they talk to is also on whatsapp and they don't want to deal with multiple apps.
