Well, that might be delusional in regards to all that security and independence wishes here, but: being able to message people I want to message.

When its private and end-to-end encrypted at all costs.

Something like Whatsapp will never be or telegram is not by default.

Signal and Matrix are good.

Fun fact WhatsApp uses the same protocol for its message encryption as Signal, but not for its Metadata.

That is protects my privacy and works well which is why I use Signal exclusively!
