Privacy is Priceless, but Signal is Expensive

We estimate that by 2025, Signal will require approximately $50 million dollars a year to operate—and this is very lean compared to other popular messaging apps that don’t respect your privacy.

As an American dev, you should check out other silicon valley salaries. After hearing what some folks there make 190k doesn't make me bat an eye.

True, but Signal is choosing to hire such people. There's talent all over the world and all over the US. There's absolutely no need to only hire people from one highly expensive region.
