OMEMO is better than nothing. Much better than OTR or PGP (looking at you DeltaChat), and the biggest problem seems to be the metadata and old versions used in some clients. The encryption (of message contents) at the very least is decent.
OMEMO is better than Matrix’s encryption, which the later doesnt offer proper forward secrecy and breaks all the time leaving messages inaccessible.
snikket is pretty slick. omemo is worrisome though

Late to the party, but have you seen this post? It addresses most of the criticism against DeltaChat (and its use of PGP)

oh that makes me excited! i was worried my bugging the fam may have been a waste, or not as useful as id hoped
It still isnt great. Better than DeltaChat/Matrix but decently worse than Signal’s security.
oh that takes away that excitement that was previously restored
Lol
