    or even a Matrix service would mean a deterioration of our data protection standards

    Why? They use same algos, same scheme. Just add support for matrix message format in your app.

      WhatsApp is closed source, and obviously it must be able to decrypt messages for the end user to read them. Anything could happen to the unencrypted data at this point. Therefore it’s less secure allowing conversations to flow into that app.

        Re-read my comment please. I’m talking about Matrix, not whatsapp. Not downvoting because you are correct, but it is out of context.

        Unfortunetly no. Can be shown when you reset the encryption keys, relogin and see that times of messages, who you are talking with and even reactions are visible. But I know for reactions and replies they are working on it.
