One-to-one and group messaging, encrypted VoIP calls, video conferencing – the open protocol handles them all
Wasn’t there a speculated mossad backdoor, since it was israeli financed. I dont remember if the thing is open source

It is open source and their encryption protocol (olm) also had an independent audit, but the not servers or the clients.

Not just Israeli funded, started inside Amdocs even. Idk if it’s backdoored but it pisses metadata to all servers it federates with including matrix’s which you basically have to federate with as it’s the “default” and even if mossad were spying on that but still couldn’t read it that’s not great either.
