Not aware that there is a modern decentralized secure and private chat protocol. Sadly. I also am not aware of any developmenta of something like that, so XMPP is the best we got (for decentralized open widly supported protocols)

I know that a lot of clients do encryption of the message body by default, but it still leaves a lot of stuff in plain text (afaik).
