Telegram Says It Will Provide User Data to Authorities

Why couldn’t Signal enable self hosting similar to TOR nodes in the future? Financial costs seems like a trivial reason to dislike the app, if anything that speaks to it’s popularity.

Question, knowing all this, the way Signal’s servers are configured, non-reproducible etc and Signal refusing to implement Molly’s features, can we ask ourselves whether Signal is a honeypot?
I see quite a few people on the internet voicing doubts and criticisms about Signal, its funding (US government), MobileCoin, non-reproducible servers and refusal to secure the application like Molly, but in the end it’s the critics who are right, isn’t it?

Signal isn’t a honeypot, just read this: https://xcancel.com/kaepora/status/1810611336675565934#m

Signal just has a cult-like status, you can’t criticize it, and if you bring something up that’s not wholly positive, it will be treated as being done in bad faith.

You will also see things like “Signal is good enough” or “Signal is the gold standard.”

With all of that, where is the encouragement for Signal to improve or go above and beyond?
