Why do you not recommend? Hopefully you're not just saying that because they aren't Signal..

I've been using Wire for a few weeks now and I'm absolutely happy. They recently released a linux client https://medium.com/wire-news/get-your-linux-on-999403a1a4fe#... (not a chrome app!) (though I think it's electron).

I'm quite happy with them, give them a try.
