      Let’s say Signal goes full maga. The chats are encrypted and there are no subscriptions or ads. What are the downsides?

        I’m currently using Signal, and happy with it, but they still don’t have reproducible builds, making it impossible to confirm that the code we can read on GitHub is actually what is running on my device

        So, even now, it could be doing something that isn’t able to be audited

        I guess Element/Matrix or Briar are the better options from this perspective, without losing any end to end encryption
