if suffers from the fact that libsodium (their encryption library) is inherently weaker than something that implemebts the Double Ratchet encryption algorithm. The most notable deficiency is that it doesn't to Perfect Forward Secrecy, meaning if *one* of a chat's keys leak, your entire chat history leaks, not just one message.
These are important things that they've failed to address.
