What about Telegram? It's partially open source (clients only for now) and provides end-to-end encryption.

Thanks for the link. However it is quite old, and Telegram was responding to the discussions and comments, demonstrating at least some respect for the feedback and perhaps doing something about it. Is there a more recent audit? I came across this - https://www.eff.org/secure-messaging-scorecard - a while back but it doesn't seem very thorough.

Then there's also Ricochet: https://ricochet.im/

Why not all open source like actor.im which is very similar to Telegram?
