That doesn't apply to me or anyone I know. I know a handful on signal and telegram but the vast majority are on WhatsApp with a smaller number on messenger.
People can contact me on signal but I mostly use WhatsApp for group chats and I'm not so important that everyone will install a newaapp just to include me in a group chat.
- mgbmtl 6y agoI used to have the same thinking, lurked on Signal for a while, then suddenly all my contacts started to show up. Even my 14 year old got all her friends on Signal (without my direct influence) because they are very aware of instagram/FB addiction and want to stay away from it.
- aembleton 6y agoImpressive. I have a lot more on telegram but have yet to have a group chat on either platform.
- texasbigdata 6y agoSame.
- gdubya 6y agoSignal now supports group chats as well, thought it looks like all participants have to be using Signal otherwise it uses regular MMS and the "group" dynamic breaks down.
- aembleton 6y agoI know that it supports group chats, but the whole group would have to switch to it. That might happen with one such group in the next few days as we've had a long discussion. 1 member of the 15 in the group has now installed signal. 2 of us were already on signal. That still leaves 12 more to switch but it could happen.
