I think there are some concerns that Session has made too many security compromises. Enough noise that I am not interested in using it.
It also wouldn’t be the one that comes to mind as a good choice for non-technical users.
I would still lean toward Signal for non-technical users unless the requirement to use a phone number for creating the account is a non-starter, or you require anonymity from the provider (beyond E2E encryption of messages).
Wire might be a decent option if your primary focus is message encryption and pseudonymous accounts.
