- rglullis 3y agoNo. Signal has the funding, the technical talent and the customers. They are as "open source" as it can be. The issue with them is that they want to control the platform.
- discard124 3y agoHave you considered that they might have a reason for that? You act as if control has no value to their mission. Controlling the platform allows them to continue to evolve it while maintaining the convenient and spam-free user experience that users enjoy.
- rglullis 3y ago> You act as if control has no value to their mission. What is their mission, exactly? Why does it require one single entity as the single pipeline for all global communications? How many times will we have to go through the same cycle of building centralized Leviathans and see them turning against us, to understand that this is the Road to Hell?
