Protonmail aren't necessarily worthy of the support, look up the recent news about them

Oh! didn't know that, I thought activitypub can't be used for secure messaging. Lol really hope its XMPP!
Yeah I didn't take it that seriously when it was announced right now. Just hope pixelfed stays afloat amidst the user flood and hope he can publish loops as open source soon!

Nice to see the rear of them, was tough making the call to disconnect from a bunch of people, but I've told them where to find me. Hopefully it snowballs!

Yes I noticed that, that’s why I changed to tutamail.
It’s everywhere this neofascism wild capitalism thing -

So Matrix it is?

This isn't helping.

Apart from that, it has to compete against the content monopoly Youtube has on the video platform industry.

Bad on-boarding

Yeah, it is already hard to find reasons to use it for the average user, so people with disabilities (deafness, blindness,intellectual etc.) probably even have reasons to NOT use them (no subtitles, each instance might have different elements or structure that might be a nightmare for screen readers, it might be too complex for some people, etc.).

I'm surprised this hasn't been said yet... but what I hate most about Signal is its requirement for a phone number. I don't want to be identified, and I want to be able to create multiple separate accounts with different identities if I want to.
I also hate the fact that it's a mobile-first service. Yes, there is a desktop application (and just one really crappy one at that), but it's clearly designed to revolve first and foremost around your phone and be virtually impossible to use without one. As someone who hates writing on a 3-inch screen, this is a also non-starter for me.
I understand the arguments about perfectionism, but this is too much. I'll stick with XMPP, Matrix and IRC, thanks.
I’ll
That's why Signal's spreading and your not.
