Let’s not forget that for those looking for alternatives, a key feature of signal is/was its SMS integration.

I use silence, a fork of signal.

  • upside: it can still send and receive SMS messages!
  • downside: nobody else uses it, so it only does SMS as a result.

For those who don’t remember, not only could signal be used for SMS, it used to be able to do encrypted sms convos.

Also it sadly hasn’t been maintained for years
