No, the DMA has nothing to do with RCS, at least not directly.
Yes, WhatsApp and Facebook Messenger were initially just XMPP servers, but have since had proprietary expansions.
In the context of the DMA both of them will be forced to make interoperability with other third-party messengers possible, since Meta has been designated a “gatekeeper” under the new regulation. Meta has announced they plan on doing so via an implementation of the Signal protocol.
This sounds like i can finally self host signal and its going to be interoperable? Or is it gatekept for only the big bois?
Signal protocol ≠ Signal messenger
AFAIK you could always have selfhosted a Signal server, you just can’t interact with the “normal” Signal messenger and its network.
Yeah exactly but will the bill allow me to interoperate?
