I think you missed my entire point.

I'm happy there's alternatives. Competition is good. But that's beside my point.

Maybe to make the same mistake I'm critiquing, am I understanding things correctly? Does the free version of Wire not encrypt messages at rest?[0]. Seems weird to not make the messages encrypted when they're on device. I think this is going to be a deal breaker for people because they don't want their whole conversation history scrapped anytime they get stopped at a border crossing.
