    could make a third-party Signal-compatible app, but allow it to connect to Whatsapp instead of Signal?

    you’d have to create a messaging service, not just a client.

      I guess I’m misunderstanding here - I thought Whatsapp would be the “service” in my case, I’m just making a client to hook into their, presumably open [to people who agree to whatever their terms are] API. So it’s more of a federation thing between services?
