minus-squarehelenslunch@feddit.nllinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up5·6 months ago Much like what Signal did. Sure, you can run your own Signal server Wait what? Are we talking about the chat app?
minus-squarehelenslunch@feddit.nllinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·6 months agoYou can’t run your own server. Never have been able to… You can create your own federated chat app or whatever that uses the Signal protocol? You can also fork the Signal chat application? But all Signal messages run through Signal servers.
