i’ve just seen a comment in a post, in this very community, saying people trust signal because of missinformation (from what i could undertand).

if this is true, then i have a few questions:

-what menssaging app should i use for secure communications? i need an app that balances simplicity and security.

-how to explain it to my friends who use signal because i recomended?

-what this means for other apps in general?

    My contact coulds find me by phone number. I changes my status on WhatsApp and half of the regular contacts decided to use Signal. If I want to use SimpleX I would have to invite them all and just hope they’ll adopt.

    I don’t need my phone number to be private. I want my communication to be private.
