Network effects with messaging are weaker.
If you convince just one of your friends to hop onto signal, it can be useful - make it someone you message a lot and go from there. A few months ago I had just one person I used it for. Now it’s in double figures and growing.
Every hacker who gives a damn should install signal and encourage others to use it. There’s just no downside.

- Vinnl 9y agoYou don't even need to convince one of your friends initially - just use it as a regular SMS texting app. That's how I started, and now I'd guess about one third of my friends have Signal. (Though I guess it helps that I don't use WhatsApp either.)
