Back in the day Signal was called TextSecure and it did everything over SMS which required no centralized infrastructure aside from the cellular networks. They transitioned to internet-based messaging to support Apple devices. It seems that decision is now a 50 million dollar per year step backwards.

If you check their costs, SMS (used for registration) is the most expensive part of their operation.

You misunderstand how textsecure worked.
