Sure, and I don't remember disputing this. But let's not conflate the Signal software (client, server, etc.), the Signal protocol and the Signal *service*. Could you elaborate on why in your opinion an entity providing a service should automatically accept connections from third-party clients and/or federate with other service providers? https://github.com/LibreSignal/LibreSignal/issues/37#issuecomment-217231557 (as is implied from that, Signal did at some point federate) Or could you explain why Matrix (which as far as I know is already both federated and open to any client) is not enough?
