    Yeah great, then I can talk to literally nobody because I’ve never met a single person in my life who has signal, and now it doesn’t even do texts anymore! Hooray!

      SMS was considered a safety issue amd discontinued.

      And if nobody in your friends group start talking about, nobody will get to know it.

        I know it was, that’s when I stopped using signal. And I’m not going to waste my time trying to convince a bunch of people to sign up for yet another app to chat in, they’re not interested and don’t care because WhatsApp exists.

          I was in your place once.

          At some point I just decided I couldn’t be bothered with installing junk software that rendered my low spec cellphones unusable in a very short time.

          If anyone wanted to reach me they could send me an sms, email me or spend the time to properly call.

          Worked like a charm to thin the herd.

            I’ll remember that next time I decide I have too many friends. My low spec phone works just fine with one extra app on it.
