It will be open source, end to end encrypted using Signal’s double ratchet encryption protocol, and he plans to make it easy for fediverse platforms to integrate it. The beta will release later this month.

He’s also the creator of https://fedidb.org btw

I've been unhappy with the direction Signal has taken in recent months and Matrix always felt like it was trying to do too many things at once.

Happy to see something that would integrate directly into Fediverse platforms as it will greatly enhance interplatform communication.

Like a better FB messager.

You should try Beeper too.
