Matrix is a nice alternative. It's free software, with strong privacy
requirements (E2EE encryption for private chat and rooms, only need a user id + 
password
to register, ...). Also there is currently at least 7 clients written in Qt:
Nheko, NeoChat, Spectral, Quatermion, Kazv, Mirage and Fluffychat (Ubuntu touch 
edition).

Disclaimer: I'm a co-maintainer of one of the client listed above (NeoChat).

Cheers,
