Would it be possible for Signal to switch to an European serverless provider?

    Probably. But it shouldn’t matter. Their architecture assume the server is hostile.

      Yeah, but the Trump administration could order AWS to shut down signal and presumably they would comply.

        True. Take a look at SimplexChat. It has a distributed architecture and allow people to host their own servers. Might be a good backup, if Signal should ever go down.

    @lena Someone said this is not possible, at least not trivially. (I cannot confirm if this is true.) https://fosstodon.org/@link2xt/114053089792028947
