No ones paying for SMS.
-
There is always SMS for these.
Hey, wouldn't it be great if Signal still supported SMS?

Wouldn't Matrix be a better alternative to Signal, since it doesn't need a number and the main/default instance (matrix.org) is based on the EU? Maybe it has a too difficult learning curve to the average user, though

At least WhatsApp is encrypted and let you have propre group chat

That means very little to me. Actions speak louder than words, and it would probably help the development of loops if it was actually open source.
-
Personally I see no benefit in it.

How is it a ghost town if there is a new video someone posts like every 10 minutes?
Are you kidding me?
I thought it was more than that when I called it a ghost town.Imagine if in the entirety of Lemmy, in all channels of all instances, there was a total of 6 posts per hour, and none of them were in channels you wanted to subscribe to.

It's a scam, anti-libre software.

Matrix isn't fediverse though. It is Federated but uses its own protocol

Well, Signal isn't federated either, and doesn't have a fediverse-like technology like Matrix does...

Here Revolt is suggested as an alternative to Discord which looks quite similar.

@[email protected] I have a self-hosted Revolt instance (Discord alternative). The primary server can be found via this link: https://199x.chat/invite/K6pFvcy3 Like Discord, anyone can create their own server and invite others. I find it to be more user-friendly than Matrix.

No end-to-end encryption

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.

You do not have a solution.

No, Matrix is federated differently.
-
No, that's anti-libre software.

Is there an android app for loops.video? I can't find one.
Loops is anti-libre software.
