      It doesnt matter, it was about user base.

      I can convince my tech iliterate family to use signal when they simply replace their texting app with it.

      Now they have to use two different apps to talk to different groups? Theyre not doing it and dropped signal

        Man this is such an American thing. Everyone in my country uses WhatsApp which is not good but Atleast better than SMS.

      They were previously. They removed the encrypted SMS first, then years later SMS altogether.
