As per usual, the answer is "depends on your threat model". For a lot of sensitive communications, the centralised design and therefore ability to correlate metadata is a no-go. But if you're just using it e.g. as a WhatsApp replacement to message your friends, it's fine. It's still the most polished and normie-friendly e2ee foss messenger.
