Is there a non-electron application to connect to Signal which is FOSS?

@cwebber No. Basically, you could set up your own Signal-style network using their protocol and hosting your own servers, but you would not be able to get your third-party application permission to connect to Signal's servers.

@cwebber one statement from Moxie basically saying that third-party clients end up as both security risks and business risks for Signal (I am not agreeing or disagreeing, just linking): whispersystems.discoursehostin

@darius Yeah, I've avoided Signal for this reason for a very long time. But I'm participating in a group that really wants to coordinate on Signal so... I guess...
