    I feel this. A couple years ago I decided you either get me on signal or SMS, I lost contact with a lot of people after that, but seeing my contacts slowly join and having people slowly start to accept it as a viable messaging app is a good feeling

      You should check out matrix. I had it on my todo list for like 2 years and finally gave it a shot. They have a federated model for communities, interoperability, self hosted servers for data retention/ownership and a big one is the platform bridges. It kind of seems like the next step in IM that social media has taken as of late.
