And if so, why exactly? It says it’s end-to-end encrypted. The metadata isn’t. But what is metadata and is it bad that it’s not? Are there any other problematic things?

I think I have a few answers for these questions, but I was wondering if anyone else has good answers/explanations/links to share where I can inform myself more.

    It might be E2EE but it’s not encrypted on your phone and it’s closed source. How do you know they don’t send the conversation data to their company? How do you know they don’t get the encryption keys to decipher the messages for them?
