Edit: Oh yeah, DON'T USE SIGNAL. Use Matrix instead, offers the benefits of signal without the drawbacks of lack of sync and phone number requirements and is decentralized. The fact that everyone is going gaga for signal as "the BEST messaging app" should be a big red flag in and of itself, because hype trains like this aren't organic, just saying.

Sync: No it does not. Do not lie. They don't support it, it will deliver the message to multiple endpoints, but that is not sync.

System support: The clients for desktop for signal are feature lacking trash. I want all platforms to be first class citizens and it's VERY clear they are not.

Hoops: Bullshit bro. Bullshit. You might glance over all the steps but that doesn't mean they're not there.

Chat history: If I can say at all that it loses my fuckin chats, that's a shit fucking chat application. I have plenty more trash to talk if ya need it though because that app is hot fucking garbage.

Unreliability: If you spent even a fraction of a minute googling it, you'd see that a lack of notification delivery and other bugs are extremely common. I've experienced them. It's great you've had a happy go lucky time, but your experience isn't the end all be all.

Lack of account based sign up: Literally a massive issue and you're just dismissing it because it doesn't affect you. Goodluck getting anyone to hop on board your software preference train with that kind of attitude.
