End-to-end encrypted messages need more than libsignal
How is twitter intending to use libsignal? I doubt it would be via the primary AGPL license[1], forcing them to publish the source code of their server source code. Does signal sell private licenses?

Snap Store administrators removed signal-desktop from Ubuntu Snap
The AGPLv3 only requires that you make the source available, that can even be on request. But that's not what's going on here. The code used to build their snap [is available](https://github.com/snapcrafters/signal-desktop/blob/master/s...), and they just tear apart the official .deb to repackage, meaning you can offer the source just by pointing people upstream, that's valid and often done.
- cant install signal?!
- Linux Snap package not updated
