Unless something changed here is Blogpost why they don't federate https://signal.org/blog/the-ecosystem-is-moving/

Signal isn't a federated protocol, so even if they were incentivized to release all the server bits and pieces, it would not help. You could run your own, but wouldn't be able to reach-out to your friends running theirs.
