I was just talking with a friend about why people trust signal so much and this article is a wonderful example of why
wtf is this click bait
n a recent blog post, the Signal Foundation, responsible for managing Signal, detailed the operating costs for the first time, disclosing approximately $40 million for the current year, with projections reaching $50 million by 2025.
Using =/= Operating
It’s unusual phrasing, but not wrong. It doesn’t say specifically who is using, and will have to pay the $50M. You’re only assuming it’s about each of us individually.
if they stop operating it, we won’t be using it anymore.
it is likely bad phrasing, instead of intentional click bait.
If they open sourced all the server code, we could be helping them to operate it potentially, but they want to control the infrastructure, so I guess we’ll all be using xmpp soon.
The article about the blog post adds nothing.
Adds negative value by introducing confusion
“If you want to use signal it will cost you”
@[email protected] could you swap the article and title with the better source?
Lemmy lets you edit titles after the fact. You can leave an explanation for the swap in the post body, and leave the original link there too if you want
I don’t think I am going to be able to afford it.
Shit, I can’t afford that
That headline is just dumb.
