Don't project that laziness onto the entire populace, enabling others to feel comfortable that it's "too hard" to use Signal....that's awful.

Unfortunately WhatsApp has a lot more staying power and social inertia than you would ever realise, regardless of how large a social circle is, and your anecdote doesn't change that either. Until Signal supports all or most of WhatsApp's features I don't see this changing.
- approxim8ion 5y agoSignal does support most of WhatsApp's features though.
- colesantiago 5y agoGreat, so this means I can use Signal to backup my messages on my old iPhone with an iCloud backup to my new phone right?
- circularfoyers 5y agoYou can transfer all your messages from your old iPhone to your new one though[1]. [1] https://support.signal.org/hc/en-us/articles/360007059752-Backup-and-Restore-Messages https://support.signal.org/hc/en-us/articles/360007059752-Ba...
- approxim8ion 5y agoNo, supporting most of anything doesn't mean having the one random thing you need as a certainty. But also yes, messages are transferrable.
- colesantiago 5y agoFor most, it's also a deal breaker.
- def_true_false 5y agoThis didn't age very well.
- colesantiago 5y agopeople are still using WhatsApp anyway, thats the whole point.
