Wish more of my contact list would switch over to Signal. It's nearly the same. I don't see why it's so hard for some people to just start using Signal instead of WhatsApp.
Oh well.
Because people are beyond stupid. "i dont want to download another app" - while having an app for almost every other store and bullshit game and whatever
I think what they really mean is "I don't want another account".
Hell I've been getting rid of accounts lately. Feels good.
My dad won't switch from Facebook messenger so now we have to talk via unencrypted sms
"But why, everyone is on WhatsApp", and also a lot of businesses. "Privacy? I've got nothing to hide, what are they gonna do eith my info?"
groups/channels?
