Twitter's new encrypted DMs aren't better than the old ones
(Edit: Twitter could improve this significantly with very few changes - I wrote about that here. It's unclear why they'd launch without doing that, since it entirely defeats the point of using HSMs)
When Twitter[1] launched encrypted DMs a couple
of years ago, it was the worst kind of end-to-end
encrypted - technically e2ee, but in a way that made it relatively easy for Twitter to inject new encryption keys and get everyone's messages anyway. It was also lacking a whole bunch of features such as "sending pictures", so the entire thing was largely a waste of time. But a couple of days ago, Elon announced the arrival of "XChat", a new encrypted message platform
tl;dr - no. Use Signal. Twitter can probably obtain you

built on Rust with (Bitcoin style) encryption, whole new architecture. Maybe this time they've got it right?
