All valid concerns, but where is the tool that fixes all of them, while keeping the decentral organization that email allows?

I recently noticed that some of our federal offices allow to use pgp when communicafing with them. I still think it is an improvement over exchanging unencrypted email with them.

Good question. There isn't really a great answer right now.

Matrix supports e2ee. Though I believe the only existing implementation is Riot-IM (which actually planned on stabilizing e2ee and making it default today, Apr. 16 https://github.com/vector-im/riot-web/issues/6779).

Also the MLS protocol (https://messaginglayersecurity.rocks/) will likely support federation once it's published, although it'll be a long while before people start implementing and federating it.
