Expanding Signal GIF search (signal.org)

You joke, but I'm looking for a way to pay Signal / OpenWhisperSystems something. Having an excellent, secure, n00b usable, cross-platform, privacy-first messaging service this good is worth paying for. I understand they are funded largely by licensing the Signal/Axolotl encryption protocol to Facebook and Google. I don't mind that business model until I consider that those are the very services I'm specifically avoiding when I use Signal. As I work to move more of my contacts to using Signal over FB Messenger, WhatsApp, Google Allo, etc. doesn't that (at the extreme case) create a conflict for Signal/OWS?

Signal/OWS: now that you've beat the chicken/egg problem will you find a way to take my money, please? Thx

EDIT: replaced Hangouts with Allo

Because people like the feature and enabling it in a way that preserves privacy is pretty cool.
