There's a lot going on in the space. It is more innovative than you're giving it credit for, especially around double ratchet. Not there yet, but there's a good reason why I don't mind: control. Multi client support (DeltaChat desktop, hallelujah) and the fact that email remains federation-first.
My identity definitely leaks to my server because I pay it's bill. Not only that, but most of my contacts run their own email or borrow it from me or someone else. Our data does not leave any EU countries apart from the UK. We have IM that doesn't involve any Americans.
Some might imagine we feel terribly smug about that right now :)
