e2ee and open source protocols are doing relatively fine imo. They're working pretty well and available. Only issue is that not that many people feel the need to use them, so they don't get that many resources.
IMO there's a much bigger problem though: the availability of trustworthy hardware devices is desolate.
It's becoming a real struggle to get a reasonably new smartphone with an operating system that's not pure spyware while more and more things in day to day life depend heavily on smartphones.
The minimum that would urgently be needed is some widely used linux smartphone (running on something like postmarketOS) that allows making calls, texting and running a modern web browser to at least be able to access web services instead of proprietary apps.
