Why was your experience bad? Did you sign up for it when Elon Musk encouraged people to use it? Back then, so many people signed up that their servers were just overloaded. That's to be expected with a user growth rate of 400% in one week. I've been relying on Signal for all of my communications for a year and a half now and I haven't ever experienced any issues.
I signed up very early and it was based on an episode of All About Android on TWiT. Messages just weren't going through. Mine out and others in to me. There was an emergency and someone really needed to get ahold of me and I didn't get the message. After that I dropped signal.
Oh, that's unfortunate. I understand why you dropped it after that experience. I can only tell you that they have massively improved and the experience is great now.
If it gets immensely popular I'd definitely consider using it again. Without SMS as a backup it isn't very useful. I converted a few people over to it initially and after that incident we all left. I'm not really interested in playing evangelist again.
