"Centralised messenger Signal has just announced that they are making part of their server software closed source. They claim it is to fight spam, but by using closed source they make it impossible for outsiders to verify the truth. This is worrying.

We really, really need a fully open, decentralised alternative to Signal.

There are several alternatives being developed, please support them:

➡️ @matrix

➡️ @delta

➡️ @briar

➡️ @Jami "

    XMPP, and Matrix are going well. Session I think is an alternative to Signal, but the problem you’ll find is how many contacts do you actually have on Session… Matrix is probably the best option as it also can bridge to so many other services.
