Time to get serious with E2E encrypted messaging (techcrunch.com)

I currently use Telegram for my friends and family, but have reluctantly come to the conclusion that the UK Government is either reaching agreement for backdoors with messaging services, or is trying its hardest to.

I'm also on Element/Matrix. Before I try to get my contacts to join me on there, should I be aware of any privacy issues or is that a good place to head?

Telegram is the least secure thing there is. Not only it's complete zero effort security, it's also much above zero effort to advertise itself as almost secure. Not a good combination as you know.
