No. XMPP would be the best choice.

Or self-host XMPP server on low-end VPS, it'd cost you few euros a month and you can provide E2EE service to your friends and family. It'll cost less than Threema and you will be in control of your data.

Is UX/UI and marketing really the reason XMPP lags behind Signal/Matrix/Telegram? in c/privacy@lemmy.dbzer0.com

Check out "monocles chat" as replacement for Cheogram. They look very similar but monocles comes with some functionality and UI tweaks.
