@_elena @reiver I'm having the urge to attempt the same in the UK also.

As silly as it sounds I noticed my local council having WhatsApp and wanted to get them to offer signal alternative.

Any advice on approaching organisations etc on trying to make changes like this?

@peach @reiver I don't have any advice / resources readily available for this unfortunately. But it's something people I know are thinking about / want to create.

Maybe you could share articles about how many countries in Europe (I'm thinking of France, Austria, Germany) are intentionally leaving Big Tech platforms for digital sovereignty. But bc of Brexit not sure how these arguments will land in the UK...
