    My understanding is that many chat applications incliding whattsapp use the signal protocal. However sadly signal nolonger wants to federate with anyone which i think is a huge shame and really could be the next step in global encrypted communications.

      IIRC it wasn’t the signal protocol, just the encryption methods that were shared with WhatsApp. I don’t think federation was ever on the cards.

      Where did you see that Signal won’t federate with anything? Can’t find info on it anywhere.
