Don’t let perfection be the enemy of good. All my friends and family use Signal, it was a multi-year effort to pull that off. Signal will roll out usernames faster than the tide will turn, so let’s take our wins and learn to be better.
I can’t fathom why they insist on sticking with this. It’s so obviously a de-anonymization technique, which is completely at odds with the rest of their stated goals. I haven’t made a Signal account for exactly this reason.
You can care about privacy, or you can ask a phone number during sign up. Those things are mutually exclusive.
Don’t use Signal you care about privacy.

Yhea.
I can almost exclusively chat with my social circle with signal now, been using it since 8-9 years.
I’ve tried xmpp, matrix and some other. Signal is the only one that stuck, it’s not perfect but it’s fucking fine from my perspective.
You’re conflating privacy with anonymity. Signal is not anonymous, but it is private.
