I can’t use them because I can’t convince anybody to switch with me. I talk to most people on discord and I’d rather move to using Matrix, but I can’t convince any of my friends or family or anyone I know to use anything else.

I bought everyone in my family a drink to get them to use Signal. Worked great and we’re still on it.
Don’t bother trying to sell people on privacy etc, for the most part. Show them Giphy integration, stickers, Stories, etc and show them that it’s fun. Signal has done great work there, in making it “noob-friendly”
The number of times my family complains about signal not having polls…
I mean, you can make an ersatz poll by using emoji reactions
Yeah that’s what we do but it pales in comparison to FB Messenger’s polling system, apparently.
Seems like a lot of people want that too, so hopefully they’ll add it soon
I wish it had tenor instead. Giphy seems to really lack content, I never find what I’m searching for
