I use both of these, but I think they're stupid. I don't want some harebrained sync-to-browser-by-routing-through-my-phone-after-scanning-a-QR-code scheme that breaks whenever my phone is offline, or when I need to borrow a computer, or when I'm in a different country... I want a bog-standard client-server architecture with a fully featured client on my phone, desktop, and browser. Everybody did this in the 90s, it's not hard... why has it gone out of style?

  Wire does that and works better than Signal most of the time. You can also create an account using your e-mail address, no need to supply your phone number.

    > works better than Signal most of the time Not in my experience. YMMV.
