After playing around with federated XMPP (on my own server): XMPP with OMEMO is brilliant. No battery drain (Conversations and Astrachat tested on android), multi-client e2e encryption, even voice/video is possible. And, being federated, I finally own my identity.

What's the benefit of end-to-end encryption if you don't have anyone on the other end?

Nobody can read your secrets if you don't have anyone to send them to.

I've underestimated XMPP myself, there's a surprising amount of providers out there.
