YSK: Signal is a great secure private messenger app comparable to others on the market. - eviltoast

“When you use Signal, your data is stored in encrypted form on your devices. The only information that is stored on the Signal servers for each account is the phone number you registered with, the date and time you joined the service, and the date you last logged on.”

This isn’t an ad, I wasn’t paid for this post. Just to clear the air: fuck facebook, fuck elon musk and twitter, fuck anyone who thinks this is a paid advertisement. I wish I was paid for this shit, I just wanted to spread the word. Thank you. 😀 👍

    I’ve used it for years and somehow had no clue they even had sms support. Doesn’t really matter to me because SMS is wildly unreliable for the location I’m at anyway. I’d rather use the actual app if still given the choice. I can understand the move to drop support for it, to be honest.

    I can infer what you mean by “particular things”, but I’ve never really heard of that amongst anyone I know. Many people think that of whatsapp, too.
