The binaries aren't signed… :’( Also, it seems quite vague to me exactly who/what company/entity is behind it.

I agree; i use Firefox on all my Desktop devices. But on iOS it’s the worst. I never use it, except to quickly check for a (synced) bookmark.

The part you apparently don’t understand, is that this is (unfortunately) currently the reality: it’s what most people use now. We can’t expect everyone and their grandmother to switch to a perfect e2e alternative overnight. Meanwhile, i

Yea that's correct, it seems to exist; However apparently the default server, matrix.org , does not support it... (which everyone uses who follows the default App setup flow.)
