Comment (by vegansalad):

 OMEMO is now based on the OLM Protocol instead of the Signal Protocol
 (formerly named the Axolotl Protocol).

 It now has an official XEP: https://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0384.html

 Both OMEMO and OLM have been audited by third parties:
 https://conversations.im/omemo/audit.pdf
 https://www.nccgroup.trust/us/our-research/matrix-olm-cryptographic-
 review/

 Some of this content is outdated, but a lot of documentation was written a
 few months ago about OMEMO here: https://we.riseup.net/riseup/xmpp

 OMEMO is being ported to Profanity.im as well
 https://github.com/boothj5/profanity/issues/658

 Usability for the only desktop client that supports OMEMO currently,
 Gajim, is not perfect. https://current.workingdirectory.net/posts/2017

 It'd be great to see Tor Messenger work with InstantBird in order to
 support OMEMO.

 What are some blockers that prevent this from happening?
