A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

You don't need everyone to know how to compile, just enough to do it and can share the compiled one. Like some auto build daily release you can download from github. As long as it does not belong to a company.
As someone who has spent years extolling the virtues of Matrix/Element to family members I can assure you that there is no known rebuttal to the phrase "but I don't care about privacy". All it needs is to visit a site and sign up. No software required whatsoever. Good luck with GitHub and your ageing aunt or gobby nephew.
Yeah, they will not adapt and that's not the target audience worry about privacy anyway. They'd give it out for free donuts.
You can also simply provide a host of links to download and install extensions, just like Firefox. People that don't care already gonna sign up stuff and give away personal info for free.(take this survey for a chance to win $5000, but input these personal info so we can contact you if you win.) For people that do care a bit about privacy end to end is like bare minimum. (Like https eventually became standard.)
