Technology Preview: Signal Private Group System
I really want Signal to succeed. Or rather, I want anything that has decent cryto and is not FAANG to succeed.The problem is not which messaging app I want to use, it's which messaging app my friends are using.That said, if I had to choose, I think Matrix has a slight edge in my books because it's a protocol rather than a silo. Even though Signal is private and open source, they are hostile towards people running their own Signal builds on company servers, and unwilling to federate with other servers.Essentially, you run the official Signal app on the official Signal servers, or GTFO.
