starting a native adaptive Linux client for Signal
Hi, I started working on a GTK client. Although, the backend is still non-existent. It is just a UI preview for now, but it is already adaptive. https://github.com/SeaDve/Hermes

Signal discussed at May Contain Hackers 2022 Conference
There are good reasons to exert a level of control over what connects to a communication network. But effectively shutting out a community of developers that would love to implement Signal clients for less popular OSes (many of which happen to attract the kind of infosec-aware crowd that used to be the core pushers of Signal) is not a good outcome.
- The status of Signal-Desktop-5.0.0 running on Pinephone made progress.
