OK, I see both the server and the client software are released with a #FreeSofteware license (GPL, AGPL). I read https://wire.com/en/legal/ which acknowledges the "Open Source App", which doesn't give any info on server source code (although it does mention that connecting the Open Source App to non-Wire services is allowed, and removes some restrictions from the Terms). Those ToU sure seem non-free to me, tho.

1. Legal · Wire
  
  Before using Wire, there are a few things you should know.

  Not sure why that message didn't thread with the rest of the conversation about #Wire

    @bobjonkman Not sure if it counts in the list, but would something like Jitsi Meet apply? Technically its also Instant Messaging although focussed on meetings. Its standalone but everyone can easily start there own instance, and its even integratable into rocket.chat.

      I thought #Jitsi was a multi-headed client for XMPP and SIP communication. Apparently #JitsiMeet is more. If you think it's a valid "Free Software Social Media platform" then feel free to add it to the list! It's a Wiki, after all. I can use the extra help :)

        Sorry, I was unclear. The list is on a wiki; I invite you to add #JitsiMeet to the list... https://sobac.com/wiki/List_of_Free_Software_Social_Media_platforms

        @bobjonkman Since you are in the voip world you may want to give it a spin because if i remember correctly it allows SIP integration trough Jigasi. Imagine VOIP meetings with browser collaboration.

        @bobjonkman From what I remember, they were trying to get the community to take over the #Jitsi #XMPP & #SIP client in order to focus on #JitsiMeet (which seemed to be a service built atop #WebRTC).

      Whether it's corporations or governments, there's just too much digital spying going on today. Tox is an easy to use application that connects you with friends and family without anyone else listening in. While other big-name services require you to pay for features, Tox is totally free and comes without advertising — forever.
