I think Threema seems like it might be a solid alternative to Signal.
A couple of other drawbacks for Threema:
- Can’t delete messages on recipient devices (disappearing messages in Signal)
- As far as I can tell, the server isn’t open source
Also, a very brief look suggests the two most recent security audits for Threema only covered the iOS & Android clients? Someone correct me if I am wrong
Threema run & operate all their own servers - that’s good & bad in my eyes (do they know what they doing? Has any of their infrastructure been security audited?)
