They use different encryption protocols

It's worse: they use different content format.

So basically, your encryption is not very e2e anymore, and the fact that someone can set this up, effectively giving encryption keys to a third party without their contacts being able to do anything about it is pretty fucked.

Run bridge yourself. Fun fact: you can run your server without federation to only use bridges, so on your phone you would need only two instances of matrix client. Or one if you run with federation.
