Golang protocol implementation?
I can't vouch for it, but this looks worth checking out: https://github.com/signal-golang/textsecure

starting a native adaptive Linux client for Signal
So I think we need a native Linux client. I do not think Axolotl is a viable long term solution because it uses its own implementation of the Signal network protocol (written in Go). Reimplementing the cryptography and network protocol is a ton of work and will continue to be a ton of work as upstream adds more features. Axolotl has only just started reimplementing the new Signal groups protocol which was introduced 5 months ago. Also, the security of a reimplementation is dubious.

Golang protocol implementation?
I'm looking for a Golang implementation of Signal protocol for my project (it's a distributed identity service, with secure private email as a reference application), and so far the only library I found is this: https://github.com/dosco/libsignal-protocol-go. It seems to be somewhat dead, unfortunately. Does anyone know if there is another Go protocol implementation I could use?
What are some alternatives?
When comparing textsecure and libsignal-protocol-go you can also consider the following projects:
libsignal - Home to the Signal Protocol as well as other cryptographic primitives which make Signal possible.
whisperfish
axolotl - A Signal compatible cross plattform client written in Go, Rust and Vuejs
libsignal-service-rs - A Rust version of the libsignal-service-java library for communicating with Signal servers.
anbox-playstore-installer - Install script that automates installation of googles playstore in anbox
convergence-components
Hermes - GTK Adaptive Signal Client (Unofficial)
gccrs - GCC Front-End for Rust
relm - Idiomatic, GTK+-based, GUI library, inspired by Elm, written in Rust
cxx - Safe interop between Rust and C++
