there was some controversy about whatsapp’s user agreements here in turkey and my party’s unit group migrated from whatsapp to… telegram.

    Telegram isn’t bad … if you use private chats.

    Signal is good

    Matrix/Element is good

    XMPP (the Conversations app on F-droid is completely free) is good

    Tox is supposed to be a complete replacement for WhatsApp and doesn’t need a phone number.

    Silence allows end-to-end encrypted text messages

    Delta Chat is an app with a messenger interface that uses email for end-to-end encrypted messages

    Session is end-to-end encrypted messages and hides metadata by using the Tor network

    I would especially suggest using F-Droid to install these as it requires upload of source code
