You don't even need to create usernames/passwords in advance - you can just send your friends custom one-time URLs, which will allow them to enter their own desired usernames and passwords.

We can do better than Signal
On another note, yesterday I set up my own matrix-synapse [0] homeserver along with a token-based registration page [1] with nginx+lets encrypt as a reverse proxy. I spent ~1 hour setting it up on a fresh Ubuntu 20.04 VM.
I then on-boarded my wife, brother, father and mother without issue. I just sent them a text with screenshots and detailed instructions on what to do. Everyone's in, and we have E2EE group chats going. Within ~20 minutes of sending instructions everyone was participating in chat.
All clients are Element [2] right now, though I plan on trying Weechat [3] this week.
Honestly, I didn't expect it to be this easy to do after seeing all the complaints on HN. I subscribed on Patreon yesterday and wish you all the best of luck!

I make extensive use of Telegram bots for educational purposes (they help me with audio, image requests). I'm thinking about switching to Element/Matrix, but are the bots as capable there too?
Yes, see https://codeberg.org/imbev/simplematrixbotlib and https://github.com/mautrix/python
