Are there any plans to add VP9 support?

  Author here. It's on the long list of things to do, yes. But we have many things before it on the list :).

    Hopefully proper client sync and cross-platform migration are on the list. Two of the biggest issues for me with Signal have always been the incredibly poor client sync which I've heard is intentionally crippled to the point of being useless because of some hand-wave-y privacy reasons. Also, the inability to move between Android and iOS. I lost years worth of conversations when I switched from Android. Worse, one day my Signal client on Android started crashing on startup. I emailed support@ with logcat files and never heard a peep. That lack of support for probably one of the most serious use issues one could have left a permanent bad taste in my mouth. I don't care whatever paranoid argument someone at Signal has for why I can't sync my desktop client to my phone. Stop being paternalistic and let me decide if the tradeoff security-wise is worth it to me, please.
