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. 😀 👍

        Yeah, I don’t really get why they can’t make that optional. Session and SimpleX are running just fine with no phone numbers, so I don’t think that’s a technical problem. If Signal wasn’t audited and recommended by tons of privsec enthusiasts and experts, I would have believed it’s a honeypot
