Wait, this means all my (stupid) WhatsApp friends who refuse to switch to Signal will finally be able to chat with me? 🧐

Huh, #Signal username numbers can’t be 00. Weird.

Is it just me, or did #Facebook recently kill #Messenger video calls in #Firefox on macOS? It used to work until a few weeks ago, now the call button isn't even there where it used to be. Works fine in Chrome. Time to convert my mom to #Signal?

A los amantes de #Signal os tengo que reconocer que la app #Molly #FOSS ha avanzado muy saludablemente.

Y aun así para privacidad y seguridad me seguiría quedando con #SimpleX #SimplexChat. 😅

has A/Bed me out of using web messenger on my phone (without getting hacky). So now I'm proselytizing again, but with ultimatum undertones. Purpose of a system is what it does etc etc.

Ayé enfin le nom d'utilisateur.
Souvenez vous qu'il est fait pour être éphémère si vous le souhaitez. Vous pouvez en changer n'importe quand.
(Oui le numéro à la fin est obligatoire, mais vous pouvez le changer)

C'est cool de pouvoir choisir plusieurs manières pour les gens de vous contacter: nom d'utilisateur, URL ou QR code.

Et le réglage de la confidentialité du numéro de téléphone (séparé) est bien :

’s New Usernames Help Keep the Cops Out of Your Data
https://theintercept.com/2024/03/04/signal-app-username-phone-number-privacy/ by @micahflee

"In short, if you’re worried about Signal handing over your phone number to law enforcement based on your username, you should only set a username when you want someone to contact you, and then delete it afterward. And each time, always set a different username."

Ich teste gerade die Signal Username-Funktion und habe einen Benutzernamen erstellt, unter dem ich vorübergehend erreichbar bin. 👇

Since last update, @signalapp let you create an username and share it with others by QRcode or link (thank you @maique for the tip), without have to share your phone number 😀

This will be my new DM system. No need for private messages through social networks anymore 👌

Do it and stop the maddening nonsense of letting your private conversations in some billionaire internet servers 👊

Yesterday, I went to a kid's birthday party, and the mom asked me to send the photos I clicked from my phone. I asked her how to communicate and gave her options between #WhatsApp, #Signal, and #Telegram. But all she had was Apple iMessage.

We settled on sending her pics by uploading them to Mega and sharing the link by email.

This is what #Apple does to its users. Box them into thinking there is nothing beyond what Apple has provided them.

Signal brugernavne er nu tilgængelige i Danmark!

Hent den seneste version fra Apple eller Google Play Store og gå ind i indstillinger > din profil (navn og telefonnummer i toppen) > brugernavn.

negándose a buscar una integración con es uno de los movimientos más cabezaduras y tontos que he visto. Es la excusa perfecta para robarles usuarios, imagina poder usar Signal, evitar que te espie Facebook, y aún así poder comunicarte con todo el mundo.

Literal esa integración es todo lo que me falta para borrar a WhatsApp.

Una verdadera pena. 😞

I'll keep saying it:

Both #signal and #telegram requiring your phone number is really fucking stupid.
