I really hope they stand strong. We need some influential entities standing up to the shit going on.
Sadly, given the current situation in the US I have to assume that the Trump gang will sooner or later try to crack down on Signal. Who knows, forcing them to give out meta data to identify dissidents etc.At least the open-source app makes me hope that there's a little less nasty things they can do than Facebook/Whatsapp.

Yeah it's a bit off if we're emphasizing a switch to fediverse specifically and not better alternatives in general.

It's free in the US, so there's ~360 million potential users they decided to make things harder for

Youtube is the only one on this list that I use and I only use it with an ad blocker.

I use threema with family but getting others to use yet another app (especially for thin social connections) is difficult.

Based on the interaction with the app. The features are extensive. There's no ads. My data has most likely been leaked by American companies anyways, so what's the big deal?

Signal is not federated.

I've been looking for something to track my physical book, music, and game collections. An instance of this might work nicely. Thanks!
