    Unfortunately none of the bigger players seem to have any interest in making use of the interoperability.

    And I think Meta has made it extra hard for smaller ones.

        They are forced to offer it. But they’re not forced to use it.

        If Signal wanted to federate with WhatsApp, WhatsApp would be forced to open up. But Signal doesn’t want to.

          Wait, why not?

          Are they afraid users won’t feel the need to switch since you can talk to everyone either way?

          Did signal announce this decision? Or are you inferring from their lack of action?
