Is using an Matrix account from matrix.org private and secure enough to talk with my family members

So, I was told to not use Signal, so all that is left is Matrix. And I am not techy enough to have my own server and neither are my relatives, so Matrix.org is the only option

Yeah, but it is still just one account per number, so it would make managing alts annoying. Not only is the main client (as well as the major unofficial ones, haven’t found one that doesn’t do that) not support multiacc directly, forcing use of profiles or VMs, but you’re also at risk of whoever rents the associated phone number after you deleting the account (that or you could pay a recurring fee just to retain the number, which is just wasteful).
