Their names are not matrix or xmpp... It's not as easy as saying "Install Signal" is my point.

that's not even true, if you search "matrix", element is your first result, if you type XMPP, you get "Conversations", exactly as you would expect.

if you type XMPP, you get "Conversations"

Which is a โ‚ฌ4 app. Also, Signal is 4th in the results.
