1 year agoYeah but I’m still mad about their decision to drop SMS/MMS.
Wonderful app, great handling of signal to signal messaging, but it really took away my ability to sell end to encryption to friends and family.

Easy enough to just drop a down vote on the discussion, right?
The fact that everything is just “working” feels great!
Apps like Jerboa have made it so seemless to transition from deaddit.
Looking forward to the upcoming features that make the communities easier to join for the layperson.
Cheers!
You’re correct I should have better worded my point: Signal used to be a single app that someone could install that could handle sending out their regular unencrypted SMS messages and Signal encrypted messages.
Signal also did exactly what you’ve described - auto-enabled encryption when it detected another signal user by phone number.
The net result was more people using encrypted messaging.
