Some services are slowly developing post quantum resistant protocols for their services like Signal or Tutanota. When will this be a thing for the web?

Currently being investigated by browser makers but not something they can just do on their own like Signal.

Here's Chromium's current proposal that they're testing:

This is really interesting, thanks

Do you know if Firefox and/or Safari have indicated if they'll be supporting this scheme too?

Firefox definitely will once a standard is available
