Do you use Signal for chatting securely with friends and loved ones? Us too! We endorse it wholeheartedly, and rely on it for nearly all our communication.

But the vibes are deteriorating here in the US, and we should have a communications contingency plan for if Signal goes down.

I thought Delta Chat encrypts all messages. Don't even know how to send unencrypted ones.

I can't say about the header stuff, but please check your statements. As far as usability (for regular people) goes, Delta Chat beats the other options by far.
