I think XMPP.

    I use Monocles Chat, a fork of blabber.im, which is a fork of Conversations.

    OMEMO encryption works by default, and (for me) was a little bit more seamless than setting it up for Element.

    Element has a slightly awkward “verification” process, and also the backing up of encryption keys, and verifying other devices, just tends to confuse new users (imo).

      Element sees this as levels of trust.

      1. Not encrypted
      2. Encrypted but untrusted
      3. Encrypted and trusted
      4. Encrypted and trusted but conversation has an untrusted device.

      Verification process is for people you interact with outside of Matrix like IRL or phone, etc.
