Hi,

Trying to move group chat from telegram to a more private option, but the key feature is its web interface which is so convenient...

I've checked SimpleX, Session, Briar & Element-Matrix, but the first 3 do not have a web version and the latest only has a free version for self-hosting and I haven't looked into self-hosting yet.

I'd completely understand if what I'm looking for doesn't exist for free, but if anyone has a suggestion here, I'm interested!

Cheers

Just because those two got mentioned: Element/Matrix and Jitsi are not E2EE out of the box. You need to set it up.

Element is default E2EE for 1-to-1 direct messaging. Rooms require setting up encryption.

But even for those you have to set up your security phrase.

Thank you for mentioning it, I've set up encryption end currently testing matrix with element as client, we'll see how it works out
