Good summary of several red-flags in regards to using the Signal messenger.

Also interesting is this one.

Use a locally hosted XMPP with the Conversations client :)

    I think I am blind. I am using XMPP for some nice channels. But I never saw integrated voice and video though. I love XMPP but I wouldn’t say it’s as easy as Signal.

      There are no voice channels as in Discord, but you can do voice and video calls with Conversations, Movim, Siskin and JSXC (with slight issues) all interoperable these days.

          The contact you want to call has to have a compatible client as well otherwise it does not show AFAIK. And your server might not be configured for STUN autodiscovery.
