Signal is completely "open-source", but that doesn't mean their chat network is open. How can you even confuse those things?

- tadzik_ 8y agoI don't think I'm confusing them – but I do think that their "open-source"-ness is virtually worthless, as the only thing you're allowed to do is read the source yourself and hope that it's the same thing that you're getting from the official packages and servers.
- Tomte 8y agoThat's a totally different aspect that reproducible builds are supposed to solve. Your "problem" wouldn't be solved by allowing third-party clients. You still don't know what the server source is.
