If you use an app with E2E (end-to-end encryption) then you are good, but Facebook even though it offers it, it's not on by default and they still collect a lot of metadata. Signal would be recommenation to any non tech savvy person who just wants to keep their private messages private.

Is WhatsApp no longer an option now that it's owned my meta?

WhatsApp does offer end-to-end encryption, so it should be safe in theory, but... it's facebook. Personally, I would steer clear anyway.
