Signal refusing to federate with WhatsApp, even though meta says they will still use the signal protocol is the most bone headed decision I have ever seen from them.
There no better chance to break the network effect than this.
Every Matrix protocol server, excluding some experimental or internal for a company ones, are federating?
And it’s not an app as you can choose an app, the protocol defines client<>server spec too.

Yeah that sucks, Signal is my preferred app and I wish I could get rid of WhatsApp without having to convert everyone.
Yeah this is very stupid. But I never liked Signal anyway.
Is there a matrix protocol based app that is planning to “federate”?
Realistically there is going to be a bridge which you can either self host or use to federate matrix.
