Do you use Signal for chatting securely with friends and loved ones? Us too! We endorse it wholeheartedly, and rely on it for nearly all our communication.
But the vibes are deteriorating here in the US, and we should have a communications contingency plan for if Signal goes down.
It’s a fine alternative. While not super secure it is decentralized which is nice.
The biggest problem I think is that it isn’t very easy to use, I think it’s a better replacement for discord rather than instant messages.
