EU Petition for taxing the rich and using the money for fighting climate change

We are getting Cloud Backups in the future! Currently, there are two tiers planned:

The free tier offers:

• 30 days of media backup
• ??? GB of storage

The paid ($3 / mo) tier offers:

• media & text backup forever
• 1TB of storage Both tiers' features and the pricing of the paid plan are still subject to change

What do you think about this?

Many of us (or at least me) would probably like to see Signal getting decentralized. Here are a few thoughts I had about this recently.

First let me define three persons:

• Peter (using the official signal.org instance)
• Ted (using the example.com instance)
• Andrew (using his own instance under andrew.chat)

Couldn't we use the upcoming username feature to build a decentralized signal network? For example with a modified client or maybe just a modified libsignal library we could parse the instance from the username which would look like an email address (ted.42@example.com or andrew.62@andrew.chat). If the username doesn't have a domain part it just uses the default instance (so Peter just has the username peter.94).

Maybe we have some people here who are already familiar with the Signal codebase and willing to assist?

EDIT: Yes I know Session and Matrix exist but Session is to extreme and technical and Matrix is more focused on communities and groups which aren't even encrypted. Besides that both of them have a much smaller userbase compared to Signal.
