What would that backdoor look like on the Signal protocol? It's not like there's a single keypair they can just read your messages with even if they store them (they don't)

They'd have to force your device to send all the keys, or hack your device directly. It's not likely. The criticism doesn't seem to take into account how Signal works, specifically.

The alternatives aren't tangibly better either. There are self hosted versions of Signal but they're subject to the same problems as the main one. Matrix is the closest thing to a good alternative and its key management is a nightmare.
