Why does Tox have a bad reputation?

Alright I've been having a hard time finding a secure, and private messenger that ALSO doesn't suck sweaty ass.

I've tried things like Speek and Ricochet but was super underwhelmed with them, same for Session, all of them feel like mobile apps that were stretched out lazily for desktop use. often they have blaring white themes you can't change, which burn my eyes, their clunky on desktop as mentioned before, unable to even do simple shit like copy past text …
