Let's not forget that for those looking for alternatives, a key feature of signal is/was its SMS integration.

I use silence, a fork of signal.

  • upside: it can still send and receive SMS messages!
  • downside: nobody else uses it, so it only does SMS as a result.

For those who don't remember, not only could signal be used for SMS, it used to be able to do encrypted sms convos.
