Agree.
But for the rest of us: does Signal have group conversations and multi-device support?
I think if we are going to replace Whatsapp we need to provide an alternative that matches the features people use and feels better.
Telegram does all that and more.
Amd BTW if you can get people to use Signal then that is great too!
(Oh the irony of me trying to get people off WhatsApp, - I was an enthusiastic user until they got bought.)
