Strange signal debug log. Why does the product say panther? And why is signal contacting ringrtc? Does this look normal?
On the two points you raised: - Panther is the codename given by Google for the Pixel 7 device. - RingRTC is a middleware library providing Signal Messenger applications with video and voice calling services built on top of WebRTC: https://github.com/signalapp/ringrtc

If you did not know, there is also https://github.com/signalapp/ringrtc by the Signal App team, which is written in Rust

Signal now supports group calls up to 40 people, using Rust
Huh, Signal's WebRTC implementation seems to be using Rust implementations of crypto primitives such as AES: example usage, Cargo.toml

WhatsApp and most alternatives share the same problem
Signal is still an improvement over other non-federated messengers in that it's open-source, so you actually can try to improve the situation, although it's notoriously difficult. As an example of more platform support: https://github.com/signalapp/ringrtc/pull/12
signal-cli is an example of a 3rd party client which is tolerated for now: https://github.com/AsamK/signal-cli
The main problem right now is that they don't have enough developers to take care of everything, but it's not specific to centralized services (no developer == no code). If you care about it, you can develop your own client using their library (à la signal-cli).
Regarding your last paragraph: I could probably list 20 features I'd like to see in Signal. That doesn't mean I want somebody implementing them with no guarantee about how securely they are implemented. One of the main goals of Signal is to provide guarantees against dragnet surveillance, and that constraint takes precedence.

Does Signal still use the client-side fan-out method for group chats?
I know their voice/video chats are built on top of WebRTC, they call it RingRTC perhaps you can find the answers there
-
is anyone regretting moving to signal and moving back to whatsapp?
Outside of the Android app, they had a bunch of "new developers" join, and they ported the call signalling framework to Rust: https://github.com/signalapp/ringrtc . This Rust library is now used by the other apps.
