Wire - Simply the most Secure Messenger
wire.com
Always-on end-to-end encrypted instant messaging, voice- and videoconferencing with up to 100 participants - future proof with MLS integration

It’s based on Signal protocol and it’s also open source. However, unlike Signal it doesn’t harvest phone numbers.

    Huh, never really looked into Wire but it seems like its a great option and now im wondering why people bother with signal or matrix if this can do both encryption and federation

      Federation sounded interesting so I looked at the website and it sounds like on prem can’t yet federate with people using “cloud” which I guess is the hosted version - they can only federate with other on-prem instances.

      It looks promising though and would be cool to host my own instance and still chat with friends.
