Be interested in various easy alternatives for encrypted messaging that non tech people will use. I've never had much luck with getting other people to use PGP, so many clients I have dealt with in the past have been all too quick to send sensitive information in plain text emails. The problem is, this info is often not super critical but not something you'd share with people, and generally the attitude is "No ones going to hack this, why would they? it will be fine ". Then people become super sloppy, they send this kind of info into support desk systems, "group" emails, etc. Mostly these days I try to force sensitive information exchanges to phone calls / 7z with passwords exchanged on a call. Hard to get people to care about this.

If you want encrypted instant messaging, I'd recommend the Matrix ecosystem, using the Element apps.[0]

For an email-based protocol, I would suggest Delta Chat[1], which is backwards compatible with existing email accounts, and follows the Autocrypt approach to PGP[2].
