Signal has done nothing but good for its users and its own reputation, but the feeling of inevitability, that it’s impossible for them to avoid enshitification, that mostly people just assume it’s a foregone conclusion that signal is now or soon will be, shit.
I like signal, and I still feel the above about it.
I mean… Signal?

It helps that it’s run by a nonprofit. No investors, no shareholders, no inevitable IPO.
It definitely jelps but then we also have Mozilla and other nonprofits not reaching the community’s expectations.
