look i feel you and indeed XMPP admins can know a lot and even reset your password if they want and but the thing is some xmpp servers are big and i’m sure they will not ruin their reputation that easily.
Also the huge plus with XMPP is that setting up a raspberry pi at home is pretty easy so there shouldn’t be a need for big servers. In the future the one IT person in every Family/Friendgroup could set up snikket and have friends and family use it.
I doubt we will find a chat solution that’s more secure than that.
