A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

That's fair, though surely the metadata does go near matrix.org if either you contact people on matrix.org's servers or use the fallback for calls since a lot of servers don't have their own TURN server for that.
I thought Signal didn't really have much metadata or is it more that it is extremely temporary to the case where it doesn't matter?
And yeah, definitely agree that most extremely private (or at least marketed that way) messengers have a terrible UX and in a lot of cases UI too.
