Great input and def good to know what can hinder mass adoption so that fixes can be implemented!
I love signal but the user adoption has been slow. A few things I’ve been curious abt on signal
1. Who their early adopters target market is - it’s a bit fuzzy atm
2. How’s the cost structure broken to - ie what’s the % for infrastructure etc - signal’s $10M sustenance cost per year is high given it’s purely dependent on donations and donors has no interference (as opposed to wiki)
3. There’s a shitcoin Integration? Why not Bitcoin? And adapt lightning ?
4. Is signal swinging more towards whatsapp or telegram ? Might make sense to open up to telegram mode where devs can build communities on it. Wasn’t sure why effort builders swung into “stories.”
I think signal has a lot of potential and if the growth strategies are clearer, it will set precedence on a lot of things
