If we do end-to-end encryption, we can guarantee privacy. But if we depend on a centralized service, we are creating dependence, for some reason if the service provider is shut down, you are out of luck. Also I couldn't figure out what protocol they use from their FAQ. So my recommendations are TextSecure or XMPP/OTR. I use Loqui IM on my Firefox OS phone (there is no TextSecure yet for Firefox OS) with OTR support. On desktop, you can use pidgin with otr plugin.
