Where is signal hosted? I know quite a few people who picked Threema because it's not hosted in the US (even if you can validate the encryption is sound by checking the app source).

As far as I know, Signal is hosted on a mix of Amazon, Google, Microsoft and Cloudflare. https://www.kuketz-blog.de/signal-jegliche-kommunikation-erf...

Threema is hosted on bare-metal servers in Switzerland. https://threema.ch/en/faq/server_location
