The ones to watch are Gajim and Dino. Both are likely candidates for the emerging Linux phone platforms. Though neither quite there yet, there is a lot of activity across the projects.
Dino: OMEMO for one-to-one and group chats. Calls (encrypted) are in nightly builds, and there is a branch to use libhandy for the UI to make it more mobile-friendly. Some more info here: http://wiki.postmarketos.org/wiki/Dino http://wiki.postmarketos.org/wiki/Dino
Gajim: The older and more mature project, it too supports OMEMO. The UI is currently being revised. Although it supports calls (and has for a long time), it doesn't yet support some of the more recent advances, including encryption for calls. This is on their roadmap. Again, postmarketOS has a dedicated page: https://wiki.postmarketos.org/wiki/Gajim https://wiki.postmarketos.org/wiki/Gajim
Kaidan is worth a mention as it uses Qt and aims to be mobile-friendly. However it is much younger and still has a number of rough edges and unsupported features: https://www.kaidan.im/ https://www.kaidan.im/
- rav3ndust 5y agoYou pretty much listed off what my response would have been. I use Gajim quite extensively, and I've also got Kaidan installed on desktop and mobile for testing. It is certainly coming along, with more improvements in the future pipeline. I've yet to try Dino on my PinePhone, but it runs just fine on desktop.
