Eh, my missus insisted we use Signal, but it’s just flat out not as reliable. It misses messages very occasionally and it’s always at the worst possible time.
Like I get that it’s a tiny bit more private than Whatsapp, but I’m not running a terror cell or a paedo ring over here. I just want to know if she wants anything from the shop.
It’s private and you can verify that, not to mention it’s non-profit. WhatsApp claims to be private but Meta has broken promises before and doesn’t let us look at source code. It’s not a “tiny bit”
