"Security" and "privacy" are relative terms.

If you want end-to-end encryption in a federated system then XMPP+OMEMO
is the way to go. Or Matrix I guess, but it isn't standardized last
time I checked.

If you want metadata resistance then Briar is the way to go. It's a
peer-to-peer store-and-forward network that tunnels all its internet
traffic through Tor, and also supports synchronizing messages over WiFi
Direct and Bluetooth.

There's also GNUnet and its associated protocols like psyc.

Short of using some complicated thing involving data diodes you're not
likely to do better than what's already out there. And nothing beats
not using computers at all.
