Edit: Oh yeah, DON’T USE SIGNAL. Use Matrix instead, offers the benefits of signal without the drawbacks of lack of sync and phone number requirements and is decentralized. The fact that everyone is going gaga for signal as “the BEST messaging app” should be a big red flag in and of itself, because hype trains like this aren’t organic, just saying.
I will literally never use signal until they change it so data is archivable in some form and syncable across devices. I won’t recommend people use it. I don’t care how secure it is. Security is important, but usability is where telegram has signal beat by miles. I’m not hiding nation state secrets. I’m horny posting and chatting with other weirdos that like to be animals on the internet.
I use Signal a little. While it doesn’t sync full history you still get all new messages going forward which is good enough for me.
