VC funded, not exactly a community project, I'm skeptical, and worried about it's future
The saving grace is it is licensed under AGPLv3 so community can take over if something happen.
That assumes the community can maintain enough public queue servers to deliver on its privacy promises and provide a good level of service.
Well, there are enough public XMPP or even Matrix servers, so doesn't seem THAT unlikely...
Wait until you see where Signal's funding comes from. And for that matter, Tor, the Internet, and computers.
