    That's a good point. Threema using standard libsodium cryptoboxes (iirc) makes this easier to integrate with than these Axolotl-like protocols, though Threema still uses a custom protocol to communicate chat messages so you'll have to implement that. Also, Wire has a bot API so you don't need to pretend to be a real client to integrate in a chat. https://github.com/wireapp/lithium/wiki

    Afaik Signal doesn't have that, there only seem to be third party implementations for bots.

    - Client with simple UI, polished UX, and not just a smoking pot of features: FluffyChat[3] is mostly there.

    - Server of which I can guarantee the uptime. Dendrite should lower the resource usage for a ~5-100 accounts server, and decentralised identities[4] would allow falling back to another server (such as a friend's).
