Sorry what am I looking for in this 200 comment reddit thread? I don't see any comments from moxie himself, just a lot of other people claiming to know what moxie wants. Are there reports of specific issues with 3rd party clients or comments from a Signal employee or something?

You are looking for links to what moxie said and people's experiences of interacting with him. The links to LibreSignal (already mentioned here) and Wire stories summarize most of what I was pointing at: https://github.com/LibreSignal/LibreSignal/issues/37#issuecomment-217211165 https://github.com/LibreSignal/LibreSignal/issues/37#issueco... https://medium.com/@wireapp/axolotl-and-proteus-788519b186a7 https://medium.com/@wireapp/axolotl-and-proteus-788519b186a7

  I'm looking for people's experience interacting with the Signal server, not moxie. We're talking about if the server enforces any kind of client restrictions. I haven't looked super deep, but to the best of my knowledge that's not something that happens really. I looked through that reddit thread (thanks for that BTW, whisperfish seems interesting) and skimmed over that enormous GitHub thread, but I couldn't find much in the way of people actually experiencing issues interacting with the Signal server. Again, would appreciate it if you could link me to such a thing. As I mentioned elsewhere, I maintain an unofficial signal client and I try to be aware of these sort of things.

    moxie views the servers as his, to change policy wise as he sees fit. I'm not sure you can separate the two practically.

      We know the policy, no one is confused about the policy, all 3rd party clients violate the policy. Is the policy enforced? I've seen no evidence of it.

        Most of the replies in this sub-thread are not about servers possibly disrupting the work of custom clients right now. But you react as if they were. Other things that are being brought up here are at least as important and interesting to discuss.

        Okay, that's fair. I interpreted them as a response to the original question about if the policy is enforced.

        I also interpreted them that way.
