It’s not about just opinions. Signal is actively hostile to user privacy and experience in certain ways (note that I’m not saying it’s hostile to user privacy in all ways). As I wrote in this comment in the past [1]: > Additional irritants that nobody in the development team has thought about for years: > * I decline Signal’s prompt to turn on notifications with the “Not now” button (there is no “No thanks” button). It responds with “We’ll remind you later” and nags me again in a few days. > * I decline Signal’s prompt to share my contacts with it using the “Not now” button (there is no “No thanks” button). It responds with “We’ll remind you later” and nags me again in a few days. > Signal may be good at security, but whoever designed the app has no respect for users’ time, and it doesn’t seem like they respect a user’s privacy choices either.
