Have you checked the XMPP default settings? Its not even e2ee
what are you talking about? XMPP doesn't have such a thing as default settings. It varies from client to client. There are clients which have E2EE enabled by default, clients which make it available, others that support it with a plugin and there are others that do not support E2EE.
That's no excuse to avoid XMPP. XMPP is an open standard, the key is choosing a good implementation.
