Looking at the web site, I can see how one might get that impression. The code base comes from signal, but the web site looks more than a bit like various XMPP things from a few years ago. It seems to say "we have features most XMPP clients don't" as I read it. Compare this to signal.org, which seems to be written from a list of FAQs/complaints. "Privacy" in the first sentence, four endorsements, and then a variety of FAQ points: "No creepy affiliates", "no SMS charges", "we have groups", "share GIFs freely".
