No. This fork still uses Signal's servers. It's essentially an alternative Android client for Signal.
Session is a much more complicated protocol with way too many additions and differing specs for it to be able to interoperate with Signal at this point.
- Arnt 5y agoI see. I think it might be reasonable to clarify on the home page that only the client avoids google and blobs; the server uses whatever code signal.org chooses to deploy.
