Same problem exists on the server side; choice between either bloated software, or no encryption.
Have you shopped around recently? gomuks is lightweight and decently feature-complete. You shouldn't have to compromise on encryption at all. The client situation continues to improve.
For closed devices, fluffychat has been getting popular as well.
As for the server-side, dendrite's getting ready to be production-ready and conduit will get there as well.
IMO XMPP and Matrix are the only two satisfactory and realistic solutions for IM. Compared to the status quo, I am happy with either. So it makes sense to have a client for both, and then you can prefer and default whichever after having tried both. Personally that'll be Matrix, but I'll always accept XMPP. We need to meet somewhere.
And BTW, having your main Signal account through the bridge has been supported for a long time now. It bridges with signald.
