Signal grew 5x in one day[1]. A week before Musk amplified the WhatsApp story with his "Use Signal"[2] tweet. It then did the rounds on MSM. WhatsApp shoots itself in the foot (though IMO it's a blip in their stats). Parler (thankfully) has been kicked off AWS. All good news for alternative messaging technology.

edit: as daniel_sk points out this is not a x5 increase but crossing the threshold from 10+ to the next 50+ mm downloads.
- Daniel_sk 6y agoGoogle Play has 10m+ and then 50m+ step. So if you have 40m users then you still are in the 10m+ bracket.
- DyslexicAtheist 6y agothanks I didn't know this, so it's most probably not a x5 increase but just a cross of this threshold.
