Wouldn't Matrix be a better alternative to Signal, since it doesn't need a number? Maybe it has a too difficult learning curve to the average user, though

The best number-free protocol is SimpleX atm

Matrix isn't fediverse though. It is Federated but uses its own protocol

Well, Signal isn't federated either, and doesn't have a fediverse-like technology like Matrix does...
