I'm cautiously optimistic that this isn't a warning sign. I can imagine wanting to do something new after spending so long working on one project, but if he left because things were straying from his vision of Signal that could be a bad sign.

Any indication for this? Genuinely curious!

No specific indication, but as the organization matures and brings on new folks it's always a little uneasy to see the old guard leave. Only time will tell!
