keybase and signal are my favorites; imessage, whatsapp, and some others also have native clients.

signal and whatsapp’s “native clients” are chromium-driven, but can run independently of the browser.

WhatsApp's "native" "client" is abusing your phone as a server. No-go IMHO

this is true for Signal as well, but I think this is a design feature: your phone becomes a 2FA token.

Keybase is great; opposite of anonymous if one was looking for that feature.
