minus-squareOscarRobin@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up4arrow-down1·1 年前Signal is a means for message encryption, and if every platform used it and then were mandated to interop, they’d have to figure out how to do the actual transfer, yes. RCS is basically this except nerfed and partially Google-owned which is shit.
minus-squareBram@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up7arrow-down1·1 年前This is where Matrix comes in. Fully open source and supports federation the way Lemmy does. (Even more effectively, actually.)
minus-squareOscarRobin@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up2·1 年前Matrix is more of a Discord alternative than a Whatsapp alternative though unless I’m mistaken?
minus-squareBram@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up1·1 年前For Element, Matrix’ flagship client, you are correct. Anyone can build their own clients, however, and apps like FluffyChat & Syphon aim to mimick the look and feel of WhatsApp.
