that’s correct. they want modern business video conferencing, which is a very different prospect than 1:1 messaging, or even personal group messaging. i’d argue that there are more of these available than there are business conferencing!
please don’t lump signal in with whatsapp 🤮 that kinda talk makes people think they’re largely the same (especially with the bullshit muddy water of whatsapp using signals encryption), and we have enough trouble trying to convince people to use secure alternatives already… between the open client, reproducible builds, and local key integrity they are truly not even remotely in the same league
If you can do many to many, you can do 1 to 1. That’s why I see them as a single thing. Both Signal and WhatsApp do group calls as well as 1 to 1.
Most people don’t get the difference between Signal and WhatsApp, but I agree Signal is way way way more trustworthy and security. When I have to run WhatsApp, for work, which is rare, it is in a jail, with as little access as I can give it. Including a fake address book with only who I need for the call in. It’s a closed app from a data mining company. It is filth.
