We don't need more fragmentation and we don't need yet another half-baked Proton project. Voting against.

Why not Matrix? Doesn't need to be federated, but the protocol is already there, so you might as well use it...

It is not clear what "better" even means in this context or feature request. If anything, Proton should extend Signal to allow for some of the Business-to-user features that WhatsApp has. That is about the extent of what I feel Signal is missing at this point and what would make sense as a potential revenue generator for Proton.

Don't replace Signal.

Delivery platforms sometimes display estimated availability that changes according to demand, delivery distance, weather, or restaurant capacity. Confirming the relevant service schedule helps customers choose an appropriate dining option and reduces the likelihood of arriving when their preferred meal or ordering method is unavailable.

Use Reticulum and make it easy for the user.

A messaging app like Signal but with even better features could offer users more flexibility, privacy, and convenience. While secure messaging apps already provide end-to-end encryption, there is still room for improvements such as easier group management, customizable privacy settings, better file sharing, seamless multi-device support, and fewer limitations on communication. The challenge is balancing advanced features with simplicity and strong security. A truly better messaging app should protect user data, avoid unnecessary tracking, and provide a smooth experience without compromising privacy. Developers who focus on these priorities could create a strong alternative for people who value secure and reliable communication.

Privacy-focused messaging would be a valuable addition to Proton’s ecosystem, especially for users who want secure communication across their digital lives. Strong encryption, simple onboarding, and transparent privacy controls would make such a service even more appealing. I also think the same emphasis on trust and clarity matters for online services generally, including local businesses that help homeowners protect their properties. For anyone in California dealing with rats or mice, [rodent control in Granite Bay, CA](https://rodentcontrolgranitebay.com/) provides information about local rodent-control services. Hopefully Proton continues exploring ways to make privacy tools more accessible to everyone.

Interesting discussion. Slightly off topic, but since we're talking about trust and reputation online: I recently read a detailed writeup about kakadu casino (https://santa-lou.com/) that covers how they handle security and fair play, which is a similar trust problem to what's being discussed here.

Simplex has it down... but compititions important... and its kinda needed for Meet and Mail and the whole buisiness suit...

Partner with SimpleX, they are scaling up this year.

I agree, improving the existing Proton apps first would probably be more useful than adding another messenger. Signal and SimpleX already cover this pretty well.

We're already struggling getting normies to use Signal, immagine then asking them to move to Proton Chats or something like that. Unnecessary request when they have already so many other things to improve like Proton Docs, Linux support, polished apps for Linux, de-googled phone push notification support... Don't ask to add anything that is not really important just because "it would be cool to have".

it would be great but we are already engaged with other systems so immensely and so complexly that I don't understand how will we bypass them and move here.
Surely that would take serious amount of time.

I will say why they should NOT make a signal app, and that is because there are already VERY good alternatives, Signal alone is very great, there's also SimpleX (No phone number required), Matrix, and for the hardcores you can use Briar or Cwtch.... Seriously, Proton should focus on improving it's services rather than keep expanding.

YES, why NOT?? IT IS A MISSING (CENTRAL) PIECE ...and don't say "it is already plenty of them outhere" ...as it can be an argument against other Proton apps

for internal use in Workspace very important. Maybe you can add an integration into Signal Messenger and Matrix so the Client supports more Protocols.

Voting Against also. Core apps need to be more complete and deserve more love. Having a full mail / calendar /task suited for professional use with current standard would be way more better than having another app to maintain.
You would have to invest *A LOT* to try to do better than Signal.

Also voting against this. Same reason as Amber. Existing apps need more love. We don't need more apps and we certainly don't need more AI. Self-hosting is the AI privacy and security solution.

Voting against this.

Proton is spreading itself too thin. AI (Lumo) is a money pit. Meet as well, but less.

Proton is not a VC backed company, they need to spend resources on the core products instead of creating new products that really are not needed.

Signal is great, battle-tested and there are alternatives. SimpleX Chat. Session. etc.
