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…

Cheers

    I care because Signal is the kind of insecure app that gets people into trouble. I live in Turkey, with an authoritarian government. Security is a very importan topic for us, and Signal is just a sad joke.

      I’m donde with this conversation. I agree that signal is not for you . but it’s not because it’s insecure

      What you want is anonymity. Not security.

      You say that yet here you are. On a public forum. On a pseudonymous forum where a profile can eventually be built of you. They would beat you to get your Lemmy credentials, but since everything is public, they don’t need you
