That's a cool interview!

Is there any way Signal can help with native clients on alternative mobile OSes like Sailfish OS, so we all do not keep stuck with Apple and Google?

This was a wide-ranging interview that covered a lot of ground, and answered lots of concerns re Signal's non-profit situ. Reading the names "Redphone" and "Textsecure" also took me back in the "Have I been using this since *then*??" sense.😅

That sounds like a great conversation on good stuff. Thanks for sharing.
Love some hope and positivity towards a healthier tech future.
And I hope it will help (me) convince more people to start using Signal 💜

Fantastic! Thanks for this. I absolutely loved reading a rational person critiquing several of the utterly irrational and dangerous trends in tech and the many places it intersects with civilization. 👍🏽
