Signal Desktop now includes support for a new “Screen security” setting that is designed to help prevent your own computer from capturing screenshots of your Signal chats on Windows. This setting is automatically enabled by default in Signal Desktop on Windows 11. If you’re wondering why we’re on...

Use a messenger that doesn’t require to to log in to view data stored on your phone. I’m sure the data is there, I’m just not allowed to see it.

i have simplex, element, briar and even rattlegram.

with messengers “a different experience” is interesting (for me) but if the people i’m communicating with are not sharing those “experiences”, what good do they bring? Am i going to chat with myself?

Getting people to use Signal instead of WhatsApp was a challenge already. Now almost all my contacts are on Signal.

How am i going to get people to use any of these apps considering that Signal has no shortfalls (like belonging to Facebook and spying on you)?
