I already moved on to SimpleX. Now that signal is just another internet only messaging app why shouldn’t I switch to a service that has entirely eliminated the prerequisite of a phone or account number.
SimpleX is very good as of now. Hope development direction will be same in the future! There is one inconvenience, finding new people to write. Definetly weird part of experience for non-techy users.
Yeah, all necessary features are implemented now the UI just has to get a little bit more organised and the sharing process simplified. Actually I really like the QR-code approach. It’s straightforward and gives you full anonmity. Perfect for talking to strangers.

For talking to strangers - definetly. Not for everyday use though. But it is by design. We do not want phone number, we do not have it.
I hope that when the UI matures it will be as easy to use as whatsapp or signal.
