In terms of increasing paranoia, but also obscurity:
Signal (easy, pretty secure messenger replacement)
Matrix (self-hosted, which means you control the data, but it requires good security practices on your end to be safe)
SimpleX (messenger without user IDs, makes it nigh impossible to trace who’s communicating with whom)
Briar (peer to peer messenger over Tor, Bluetooth, local WiFi, or physical drives)
For Matrix “good security practices,” I assume both parties of the conversation need to follow them? I’ve already got a VPN, but I don’t think all of the people I want to communicate with have one.
