Not sure I agree with all of his points, but it’s a start that we’re at least publicly acknowledging this as the end of an era (for good IMO)

      A small problem I see with Signal though is the phone number requirement. Maybe it’s just me, but I’d rather not bind a chat app to a phone number…There’s the privacy/security benefits, sure, but also some added clunkiness with a new device/number (particularly if the old device was broken or lost).

        FULLY agree. Decouple those and it could really take off.
