As Signal get your phone number. Can we considerate this application as private ? What’s your thoughts about it ? I’m also using SimpleX, ElementX, Threema, but not much people using it…

So those posts they implemented this were lies (meaning I obv didn’t read attentively enough)?
Sad :(.
They implemented usernames to identify people so we could stop using numbers to find each other.
They still use numbers (cell and possibly device/network ids) they say to identify and secure (or so they say).
The idea is without access to your cell phone, nobody’s going to get access to decrypt your data.
Yeah, no, I get & like that, I just somehow specifically (obviously mis-)remember that they did away with phone number as a prerequisite for creating an account (everything still the same, just that the account can’t be reset).
:(
