Maybe I missed it, but I have a couple questions. (1) if it’s based on Signal, how does it not use phone numbers? I thought Whisper doesn’t allow this sort of implementation. (2) is it compatible with Signal? As in, can I be on this, while my friends are on Signal, and still be able to communicate?
