I think you're right?
I also think they're on the right track (and a better track than apps like telegram - lots of negative social baggage). They really have gotten much farther than any other privacy focused apps.
I don't know, maybe I have a more optimistic view of the situation. It feel like they're knocking on the door of going fully mainstream.
Really? I feel like they have worsen their numbers after disabling sms support. I had a few people with whom I could chat on signal. They all moved away. I now have 0 ppl. I still have it installed but ya..
I moved away from signal and so did a number of people I knew. Because sms stopped working
Ya, looked into it and I'm wrong. I still think there is potential but...
Telegram is way bigger than I thought. Its bigger than snapchat. ๐ฏ
