      This is the kind of purist thinking that will put people off and lead to less people switching.

      Signal is Open Source, probably one of the most vetted E2EE there is. And it holds up. Compared to Facebook Messenger it’s a miracle.

      And crucially it works similarly.

        That’s what people said once about Telegram and look how they turned out. Do you believe Signal won’t go down that same path? They’ve already gotten some cracks to their reputation.

          Telegram has never open sourced its server side code which makes it completely different from a fully FOSS thing like signal.
