“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. 😀 👍

    Exactly this. I used signal exclusively as my messaging app for years, and even talked a number of other people into using it, so when we talked with each other it was encrypted. But when signal pulled SMS support, almost all my friends dropped it because they only wanted one messaging app and not all their contacts were on it, so then it became useless to me as well.
