My hope is that maybe with new leadership Signal can finally get export/migration features. There seems to have been a deliberate resistance to adding them.

- wolverine876 5y agoA big risk is that the new leader, having less authority and fewer credentials for their choices, will compmromise Signal's security to pressure from the public. With only 30 people, I am glad things are delayed. That is necessary if Signal doesn't develop and release them before they can be done right.
- pseudalopex 5y agoSecurity isn't just confidentiality. It's availability too. Losing all your data if a single device is lost or stolen or breaks is bad availability. Export isn't delayed. The Android app has export and import already. They said it's likely they'll remove it once the Android app has history transfer like the iOS app.
