Ok good. But then there's the problem of actually convincing people to use Signal. A messaging app is pointless if nobody else wants to use it.

[โ€“] Dehydrated@lemmy.world 1 points 8 months ago

Sure, but in my experience it's not that hard to convince people to get on Signal. (Maybe because here in Europe everyone already has like 15 messengers on their phone, so it doesn't bother anyone to download another one)

If you use SMS, you can argue that Signal has much better photo and video quality, it can be used from a tablet or a computer and it's basically just like iMessage but for all platforms.
