“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. 😀 👍

    As an android user, I don’t see why you would want to use something that restricts your secure messaging to a single platform.

    Convinience

    That is like the main thing apple has going for itself and people are not ready to let go of this convinience for other benefits

      Yep, that always seemed to be the reasoning, even if downloading the Signal app takes no more than 15 seconds to download and start using.

      Though I definitely get not wanting to juggle 3 or 4 chat platforms.
