Signal
Matrix. It’s far more open than signal.
True, however it's not as polished as Signal and not as noob friendly. I've been using Matrix daily for a couple years using Fluffychat and Element and not much has changed.
Unfortunately, no federated service will be as noob friendly as a centralised service.
It has made improvements although I agree it needs some more work in the ease of use department.
I can't agree. What is the thing that decentralized service cannot have?
Imagine theoretical Matrix client with Signal's UI and Signal's identity (phone number) resolution.
Phone number resolution is already a feature with identity servers but most servers don’t implement it.
Also have to choose a server increases the barrier of entry. I guess element works around that by defaulting to matrix.org although that’s not a great solution.
That's not a standard
