MODERATORS
In regards to e2ee probably, but they seem to have very specific feature requirements for a team-chat, which current XMPP clients do not fulfil.
However I do wonder about the fixation on e2ee. In a self-hosted scenario with TLS encryption (and local users only) there is no real need for e2ee.
The server is not hosted on premise and the team will exchange communication that requires to remain private. That's why I really need E2EE for everything (and why RocketChat is not an option as E2EE is not fully implemented).
Why not move the server on premise? e2ee is a very imperfect protection against metadata leaks and running the servers on premise has loads of other advantages.
There isn't really a premise per se as we are a decentralized team, but the details don't really matter.
Its crazy how Tech Giants burst out chat apps like nothing.
Having a good client based on Conversations with some stuff added would cost nothing.
Not Conversations based, but you might want to keep an eye on: https://prose.org/ (fully open-source and XMPP standard compatible)
Thats cool! A bit too much of these stupid emoji people but looks nice and futureproof?
