I'm confused, isn't Signal American?

Yeah... It's non-profit and open source... it's not ideal but Matrix or something else is an even harder sell.

Better than Facebook.

how is matrix a harder sell? they're both equally obscure to the average person and matrix at least can be quite easily compared to discord.

Moving people to Signal has been a slow road, even though it's feature rich and has a lot of users.

I don't know a single person IRL that uses Matrix.

I like Matrix and I use it but I'm not too experienced with it so I'm not going to push it hard. The bridges seem like a really great selling point but I have no experience with them.
