Telegram requires a phone number and the server code is completely hidden away from you which does not exactly evoke trust. Wire might be a good contender. However, last time I looked at it I wanted to stick with options I could confidently self-host and Wire looks way too complicated on that end. (The recommended way to do it is over Kubernetes which is something I don't wanna touch in production.)
