Wire supports it. Also more secure than Matrix
How is it more secure than matrix? I can't even self-host it.
Yes, you can. The server code is on github. But I don't know why you would, since all messages are encrypted client-side.
Its more secure because you know that all your users can't send a message unencrypted, either accidentally or intentionally.
there's a graphical indicator if they send something unencrypted, and there's no way to turn an encrypted chat into an unencrypted chat on matrix. Plus they start encrypted by default, I honestly don't even know how to make an unencrypted chat, I don't think there's any good way to other than using a client that doesn't have encryption.
this is not a real problem.
It is a problem. Many orgs have strict rules not to use messaging solutions that support unencrypted messages
This doesn't tick the box, so it blocks adoption
