Thanks for the info, what do you think about Delta chat?

The cryptography is sound, however, it's also frequently changing, in addition to straying from standards more or less. This makes it difficult to give a firm answer.

This ETH (i.e. Zurich) paper[0] identified several exploitable vulnerabilities (bad), which were quickly addressed by delta chat (good).

So overall, I'd see it as a good messenger, but with downsides.
