Have you tried any decentralized messengers?
I personally use databag (https://github.com/balzack/databag); it's open source, secure, and has no data collection. You do have to setup your own server, which if you already self host something else, is not much more than deploying a docker container. There are a bunch of other services to choose from, the most popular being matrix.org.

Hosting Signal frontend on a local server (Like Signal desktop but through website)
OWS has historically been hostile to third party implementations outside of their clients. There are multiple unofficial options but the only one I've been looking at is the bridge with matrix, though setting up a matrix server just for this is likely overkill.

Beeper >> Signal
However, looking at the Matrix docs for the mautrix-signal bridge, it seems to be open-source and end-to-end encrypted. You'll have to look through the source code to figure out how they did that, I guess, because I couldn't find any details.

Once you have the home server set up and configured (not covered here because it's a process), clone the bridge repo (for instance mautrix-signal and follow the instructions.
