Finally, we can have usernames in Signal instead of giving our phone number to everybody.

    I still luckily have a nice group of friends using Signal but I agree that dropping SMS support was a mistake. There was a good issue explaining it on their GitHub.

      I genuinely appreciate that there are some people who have the benefit of a group of contacts who are willing to use it. I’m happy for you.

      Also, that’s an interesting thread. Thanks for sharing it. :)

      In hindsight it’s sad how very right he was. Now when I think “I want to send Alice a message”, I just go to the app I know will work, instead of trying to remember if Alice still uses Signal too.
