I wish Signal was developed more openly, more like the linux kernel for a “critical infrastructure” example. I wish it had more features, so it could take the place of something like Slack. I wish it supported interoperability like fedi.

But it’s good for what it is and I sure am glad it’s around. People who disrespect it don’t know what they’re talking about.

You know, if you want to replace Slack, look into Mattermost. It’s foss but otherwise pretty much exactly what Slack does so well.

When it comes to security, I don’t think it’s close at all.

Why not? I thought it had very good security. It’s E2E encrypted and the government of France uses it.

Also a nickname for Molybdenum which makes Iron stronger like torrifying Signal makes encrypted communication stronger by protecting metadata from interception.

I wish it wasn’t located in the US where you know even though it’s e2ee they send all the data they get(and that’s a lot) to the government or whoever wants it. But e2ee is cool, right. Nobody from the government cares about it though, but it’s cool.
