See https://wire.com for more information since the linked repos provide no context. "Crystal clear voice, video and group chats. No advertising. Your data, always encrypted."

So, Signal plus video chat?

I wonder how they encrypted their chat on the web client. Scince the Signal protocol is kind of the gold standard right now, probably their solution might in the end be the better one.

Probably not, scince Signal doesn't really support secure web communication (without phone routing).

I don't get how they can make statements like this "Only Wire offers fully encrypted calls, video and group chats available on all your devices". Webrtc is encrypted by default.
