It is compatible. The people who have a say are the people who write the code. If you are not comfortable with dual licensing, don't contribute upstream.
You can fork such dual licensed project, add your own contributions and then Signal cannot use your code in anything they license to third-parties under non-AGPL. The fork becomes AGPL-only.
Example of where this has happened: MySQL was forked to MariaDB, so developments to MariaDB cannot be used by Oracle in their proprietary licensing of MySQL.
