Signal didnt update the source code for the server a whole year, so I would already consider it closed source. Now they are just making it official (but probably still talking about how open they are).
Ya'll really don't give people a break do you? Make one mistake and you have to live with it forever these days. It's not like they didn't release the code or threatened to keep it secret.
Agreed here.
