I understand the benefits from instant web chat, but I think it's not too difficult to access the signal protocol through Whatsapp or Signal's desktop app.
Those implementations both require phone numbers and registration through a mobile app (hence lack anonymity) and are useless for many use cases.
I think Matrix (Riot) would be a better choice. It's e2e encrypted like Signal but doesn't have any nonsense reliance on phones or phone numbers. It also has extra features like true multiple device support, a federated protocol and an open server implementation.
