I find this site useful to compare messengers. I would trust Wire a tad more because it's hosted in a country with stronger GDPR regulation, vs Signal being hosted in the US.
For my needs, XMPP with Omemo has been unbeatable for a long time
wire is US-based these days AFAIK - they accepted a bunch from VC money from a firm that does things like data mining and moved to the US
yeah that's a good overview of different protocols/messengers
