Does anyone know how Texts, being a desktop app, hooks into Signal? I assume it acts as a "linked device" like Signal's Electron app?

And is using it with Facebook/IG/WhatsApp compatible with their TOS?

It acts as a linked device, and you are interfacing directly with Signal's servers with the same protocol that their desktop and mobile applications use.
