Given that I’ve waited 3 weeks to join his smaller instance of pixel.art, I can tell things are already piling up. I am hoping the kickstarter does help.
Damn. Yeah let's hope he can hire some help...

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!

Protonmail aren't necessarily worthy of the support, look up the recent news about them
Yes I noticed that, that’s why I changed to tutamail.
It’s everywhere this neofascism wild capitalism thing -

Switching from WhatsApp to any other messaging service isn't a realistic option for quite many places. I'd be more than willing to switch but of all the people in my contacts (including my entire customer base) there's like 3 people using Signal but every single one of them has WhatsApp. Even the 60+ year olds.

Loops isnt even federated or open source yet. Deleted my account
-
Signal is centralized, loops is closed source and not accepting new users.
So Matrix it is?

Hidden inside the whatsapp->signal box in tiny faint font. I was wondering why there isn't a big "Discord -> Matrix"

This isn't helping.

Apart from that, it has to compete against the content monopoly Youtube has on the video platform industry.
-
Loops will be open sourced later they say.
Is Loops open source?
It will be! We plan on open sourcing the platform after it reaches a stable and easy to maintain state. -

There is always SMS for these.

Bad on-boarding
-
Yes finding the right instance on peertube is a nightmare — and also the general lack of quality content, or subtitling, which makes it as good as useless for deaf people like me.
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’ll
That's why Signal's spreading and your not.

Where is matrix?
Right in the Signal box, it says "Or Matrix/XMPP". It's super tiny for some reason.
-
They used to allow their client to be used to send unsecured SMS. Then they stopped. Whatever they thought they were doing, they killed the simplest path to onboarding laypeople they had. I kinda gave up on signal after that.
No ones paying for SMS.

Hey, wouldn't it be great if Signal still supported SMS?
