Switching from #WhatsApp / #Telegram to #Signal is not a solution if you really care about #resilience and #autonomy
Signal depends on #Amazon and fuels millions of users' donations to them every year
All of them are centralized services and depend on phone numbers, which makes them easy to censor
The best services are the one that don't require any personal data at all to register, nor payment, like #ArcaneChat
Keep the #family safe

You can now create a new #Signal account without a phone number.
And btw: it's not cool to badmouth another service just to make yourself look better.
That comes across very unlikeable to me -

That comes across very unlikeable to me@highfunctioningsociopath signal badmouthed the whole decentralized apps community with a whole video "The system is moving"
besides it is not badmouth it is plain and fair facts, there is nothing bad about letting people know there are better options
and about the "signal now doesn't require phone numbers" that is only if you pay, do I need to explain you how unpractical is that and that most people will not pay plus depending on paying method it can be even worse than phone numb.
